- Words are beautiful, but where are the actions? That is, has Arvind done anything at all in local decision making for advancing equality?
- Yes! Even though the number of votes received in 2021 were not enough to become a city councillor, Arvind has been part of for example the Urban Environment Committee's decisions.
- As an example, the committee decided about Helsinki's updated accessibility guidelines in spring 2022. Arvind was involved in proposing additions to the guidelines which were especially related to the built environment.
- The changes were approved by all parties unanimously, and the city got updated accessibility guidelines for 2022-2025!
- Sounds awesome! How can one support this concrete equality work? By voting for the Left Alliance party (vasemmisto in Finnish) to city councils, both in Helsinki and elsewhere!
