Who is Talkative Finland?

We are alter egos of a few students who were inspired by the Country Brand Report of Finland. The report

published 25 November 2010 claims that “in 2030 Finland will be the problem-solver of the world” thanks to its solution-focused approach to problems. Three strengths of Finland are discussed in the report – functionality, nature and education. We’ll write about these themes and any other topic related somehow to Finland.

Our aim is to raise discussion on Finland’s country brand especially among students and to have their voices heard. We wish to create awareness of Finland both nationally and globally. The views expressed in the blog are not related to the Country Brand Report. Whenever we write about ideas or topics discussed in the report, we make a clear reference to it.

All comments and article links related to the topics discussed here are welcome! Feel free to share your experiences of Finland no matter if you are a Finn or a foreigner.

What could Finland teach to you or your country, what could Finns learn from you?
