Kehitys-Utveckling magazine

Description What is done in the programme or project and why, what results are pursued, who benefits from the activities and who are involved in the implementation.

The implementation of the goals of Finland´s development policy relies on the essential support of Finnish citizens and the relevant interest groups. The Unit for Development Communications supports the Ministry´s departments and units in charge of development policy and development cooperation in communicating about their work. The common goal is to make both the policies and their relevance as well as the results of Finland´s development cooperation known among the stakeholders and the Finnish public. The guidelines for all the Ministry communications are openness, clarity and reliability. Timely communications, active cooperation with the media and strategic work with the stakeholders are all needed. Long-term global education is equally important as it paves the way for global citizenship. The Ministry´s Kehitys-Utveckling -magazine provides a platform for analysis and in-depth debate on development. The magazine will run four printed issues and its visuals, website as well as presence in social media will be further developed in 2020. The allowance of 200 000 euros will be used for the issues, website and social media and marketing activities of 2020 and early 2021.
