Saimi Bouckaert

Heippa! My name is Saimi, and I would love to be your next Welfare Officer! Being half Finnish but having lived abroad my whole life, I have really enjoyed sharing and celebrating Nordic culture with other members of the Nordic Society during the past two years. As your Welfare Officer, I want to make sure everyone feels as safe and comfortable in the society as I do.

Whether you're Nordic yourself, or just interested in Nordic culture and languages, the society should feel like an inclusive and welcoming environment to you. Having previous experience on the committee of a political youth organisation, I am not afraid to take action if unpleasant incidents occur. I am also excited to switch it up and help out the other committee members here and there, so that we can organise the most interesting talks and language classes, and the best Nordic-themed socials!
