Pupils met a volunteer with moustache
In the beginning of November the volonteer Lukrecija Bielskyte at the Åland Islands Peace Institute and Emmaus visited the Föglö school and presented the activities of the organizations since there was the day of internationality at the school. As she aimed to illustrate one of the issues that both organizations work with, she painted moustache upon her lip and started a discussion on gender equality with the children.
