In 2021, AvoinGLAM worked as a joint working group connecting Wikimedia Finland, Open Knowledge Finland, and Creative Commons Finland's work in 2021. Wikimedia Finland contributed to the working group with the work of the GLAM coordinator Susanna Ånäs. Creative Commons Finland / Open Knowledge Finland managed the Hack4OpenGLAM hackathon.
