Erilaisten oppijoiden liitto (EOL) is a Finnish umbrella organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of individuals facing learning difficulties. It focuses on improving their societal position, learning experiences, and employment opportunities. EOL works with nine regional member associations across Finland to provide localized support, particularly for those with dyslexia and other learning challenges. The organization offers a range of services, including free advice, guidance, training, and peer support tailored to the needs of individuals with learning difficulties. EOL conducts programs on advocacy skills, provides information on assistive tools, and organizes events like Reading Month. It also emphasizes the importance of networking with libraries, adult education centers, and employment services to promote access to suitable learning and work tools. EOL encourages donations to support its operations and does not accept direct memberships, as individuals join through regional associations.
