Welcome to the 2026 edition of A Helping Hand to Senja!
This initiative is rooted in the Norwegian concept of dugnad, a tradition of voluntary community work where people come together to contribute time and effort for the common good. In this spirit, both locals and visitors will join forces to make a meaningful difference for nature.
You can sign up for one of these 2 sites, depending on your availability and interests:
Site 1: Ånderdalen National Park, 8 days (Sunday 26 July - Sunday 2 August)
Site 2: Fjordgård/Segla, 4 days (Thursday 30 - Sunday 2 August)
15 participants will join in Ånderdalen National Park.

A Helping Hand to Senja 2026 is collaboration beetween Rissa Citizen Science, Ånderdalen National Park Board, Senja Municipality and Visit Senja Region.
A registration fee of NOK 1,500 will be required, primarily to reduce the likelihood of last-minute cancellations. The fee will be used to cover food, transport, and equipment for participants.
