Highlights from Emergency Number Week 2026

The Emergency Number Week has concluded for this year. Our warm thanks go to everyone who took part in the campaign — schools, partners, stakeholders, volunteers, and experts across Finland.

Emergency Number Week was held this year from 9 to 15 February 2026. Throughout the week, numerous events and lessons were organised around the country to practise recognising emergencies and using the emergency number correctly. Campaign materials were actively used both in teaching and in communications. The campaign gained wide visibility on social media and was featured on several radio channels.

Key figures

• 9.6 million impressions on Snapchat (paid advertising)
• 2.9 million impressions and over 20,000 clicks on TikTok (paid advertising)
• 797 views of the 112 lesson on YouTube
• 36 event announcements published on the 112.fi website
• Numerous social media posts from partner organisations
• Numerous 112 lessons held in schools across Finland

The aim of the campaign was to strengthen young people’s ability to recognise emergencies and encourage them to act in such situations. The topic received extensive visibility during the campaign week, but work on this important theme continues throughout the year in cooperation with various organisations.

Next year, Emergency Number Week will take place from 8 to 14 February 2027. The highlight of the week, 112 Day, will be on Thursday, 11 February 2027. More information about the 2027 campaign and its theme will be published in the autumn.
