As part of its efforts at ensuring that its beneficiaries are properly rounded, New Era Foundation has engaged in cultural exchange programmes with European countries including Finland. Youths especially past winners and runners-up of its Spelling Bee Competitions are given the chance to travel out and engage with youths from other lands. In return, youths from these countries come to Nigeria and engage in some of the Foundation’s activities.
Below are pictures from the 2009 visit to Finland by some past Spelling Bee Winners.
