Creative and Inclusive Finland is the umbrella over ESF funded projects that advance the employment of people in the culture and creative sectors and promote the inclusion of fragile groups though the learning of new skills. Our goal is to create an impact in the society through the increased utilisation of creative skills and methods of active inclusion.
We support national and cross-sectional projects in different phases and tasks in order for them make a lasting impact. We connect to existing networks and create new platforms for collaboration regionally, nationally and internationally. We gather and spread information and work as a small news agency for a Creative and Inclusive Finland.
