Instructions to candidate lists about introductions in ISYY’s social media and Tuudo

The Student Union offers all lists of candidates an opportunity to advertise lists and their candidates on ISYY’s Instagram and Facebook accounts during week 43 as follows:

  • a video to stories, maximum length 1 minute (size: 1080 x 1920 px)
  • up to 5 stories with text and/or pictures (size: 1080 x 1920 px)
  • 1 picture in the feed, accompanied by a text containing 300 characters in Finnish and a text containing 300 characters in English (size: square 1030 x 1030 px or rectangle 830 x 1030 px)

We cannot guarantee that the posts will look like what you wish for if you do not deliver the material in a size that fits the platform. If you wish that ISYY tags your Instagram account or adds a link to your website to the stories, please let us know to which story this information should be added. In addition, we ask you to use a clear and easy-to-read font that stands out from the background if you include text to the stories.

ISYY holds the right to not publish the material if it goes against ISYY’s rules or values. ISYY staff will go through the sent material on Monday morning on 23 October and will contact the representative by phone if the material needs modifications. The material is published on week 43 in the reciprocal order of the list of candidates.

The representative of the candidate list must deliver the material to the emails of both the Coordinator of Administration (kv.kuopio(at)isyy.fi) and the Communications Planner (tiedotus(at)isyy.fi) by Sunday 22 October at 23:59. The phone number of the representative must be included in the email.

We would like to remind the representatives of the candidate lists that they have the option to send a link to the list’s website or social media to our Coordinator of the Representative Council elections (vaalikoordinaattori(at)isyy.fi) and the link will be published in the ‘Representatives for Candidate Lists’ section of ISYY’s website.

Candidate Gallery in Tuudo

Voting in these elections is done via Tuudo. Tuudo offers a candidate gallery in which voters can read more about the candidates. The candidates have the possibility to send to ISYY an introduction text of themselves, a picture and a link (e.g. to a blog) by 8.10.2023 by 23:59 via an electronic form. The form can be found on the 'Election documents' webpage or via the link in the 'Read more section' below. ISYY's Coordinator of the Representative Council elections adds the candidates' information to the candidate gallery and the gallery is published on 11.10.2023.
