KVT is a peace organisation that aims to promote equality, social acceptance and respect for the environment. The full name of KVT, Kansainvälinen vapaaehtoistyö, literally translates as International Voluntary Service.

KVT's most important activity is organising international workcamps in Finland and sending volunteers to workcamps abroad. In addition, KVT coordinates long-term volunteering projects of 3-12 months. KVT is run by volunteers and a small office team based in Helsinki.
