Youth council

Imatra's youth council is a body that operates under the welfare board and is elected by the students of the city's educational institutions.

The task of the Youth Council is to represent the young people of Imatra by maintaining a discussion on youth issues, organizing events and giving statements on matters concerning young people and, as far as possible, promoting the enjoyment of young people in Imatra.
