The Association of Kenyans in Finland (KENFINN ry) is a formally constituted, non-profit association that brings together Kenyans residing in Finland as well as individuals and institutions with an interest in Kenya. The association’s primary purpose is to promote the collective welfare of its members by providing structured opportunities for cultural exchange, social interaction, mutual support, and constructive engagement with Finnish society.
KENFINN ry functions as a representative forum for its members, offering a platform to share views, develop common positions, and address issues affecting the Kenyan community in Finland. It seeks to preserve and promote Kenyan cultural heritage, strengthen the identity of persons of Kenyan origin, and encourage respectful and inclusive dialogue between Kenyans and the wider Finnish community.
The association pursues its objectives through organized events, educational and informational activities, mentorship and guidance initiatives, and professional and social networking opportunities. In fulfilling its role, KENFINN ry aspires to foster unity, encourage active participation, and provide a sense of belonging, thereby allowing Kenyans in Finland to shape how they are represented and to maintain meaningful ties to their country of origin while fully participating in their country of residence.
