Sorry the earlier text above, here it again.
sekä = and, as well as
ja = and
Sinä, hän SEKÄ minä osallistumme tapahtumaan =
You, he AS WELL AS me will attend the event.
"Sekä" and "ja" are both coordinating conjunctions.
"Sekä" is used between at least 3 coordinated things but sometimes also between only 2 coordinated things. With "sekä" we can also avoid repeating word "ja".
Hän kerää postimerkkejä, kolikoita SEKÄ kulta- JA
hopeakoruja = He collects stamps, coins AS WELL As gold- AND silver jewels. (so here we avoid repeating 2 "ja" words = Hän kerää postimerkkejä, kolikoita JA kulta- JA hopeakoruja) = She collects stamps, coins and gold- and silver jewels.
