       Rediscovering the Knowledge Society The Society programme of The Finnish Institute in London focuses currently in steering the knowledge society discussion towards what we think is a more beneficial direction. Read more about the current programme focus from this blog post. Current focus areas and projects: Education and Learning. Our aim is simple: we want to create a shared vision of the future of education for the knowledge society, and make it happen through international collaboration and learning.
Open Knowledge and Open Society. We believe openness is essential for a true knowledge society and our aim is to explore the benefits of transparent, collaborative and sharing-based practices, such as open data.
We encourage cross-disciplinarity and international collaboration between partners in our networks. We engage in research, broker people, link ideas, and provide our partners with a platform to discuss and act. Our key partners include universities, think tanks and other research organisations, public sector providers and policymakers Pardon My Finnish blog - straight talk about today's society Society programme Twitter account @FinInst_Society Focus areas 2008-2010 The Future of Public Services.
