The theme for this year’s conference is the Paradoxes in Facilitation, exploring the light and darkness. The theme and strands for the conference will be built around the Kalevala. The Kalevala is a book and epic poem compiled from Finnish and Karelian folklore. It is held to be the national epic of Finland and is traditionally thought of as one of the most significant works of Finnish literature. The Kalevala is credited with some of the inspiration for the national awakening that ultimately led to Finland's independence from Russia in 1917. Finland is famous for being a pioneer in developing and spreading applications of social media, open source, virtuality and other high culture and technical threads.
