The main goal is to create interaction between students and bring about intellectual conversation and debate. There are currently two ISHA branches in Finland: one in Turku and one in Helsinki. ISHA has annual international seminars that address historical topics and are accessible for participation. You can apply for membership from all disciplines and backgrounds with an interest in history.

We organize lectures, seminars and recreation (such as game nights) for our members and try to keep them informed of everything the other ISHA branches get up to. Our events are in English and we welcome all local, international, and exchange students.
