In Town Council

I am a representative of Green Party in the town council in Rovaniemi. I want to develop our city into an open and creative international hub with rich cultural diversity. I appreciate nature in the city and hope that a good care is taken of it. Good decision making is based on communication, knowledge and research. I want to develop the decision-making process in Rovaniemi to be more transparent.

Who am I, and what are my aims in municipal politics?

Koulutukseltani olen taiteen tohori kuvataidekasvatuksen tieteenalalta. Ammatiltani olen apulaisprofessori ja työskentelen lukuisissa aluekehityshankkeissa.

Olen kaksikielisen perheen äiti. Minulla on kaksi lasta ja Englannista kotoisin oleva yksityisyrittäjänä toimiva kumppani. Näen kansainvälisyyden rikkaudeksi ja mahdollisuudeksi.

I live in Korkalovaara and I am concerned about the challenges in the suburbs of Rovaniemi. We need to take better care of them.

Sustainable development is an important goal for me. Rovaniemi can be developed with both high-quality construction and green areas. The diversity of nature must be protected.
