    • Cooperation between Finland and Sweden

    Hanaholmen promotes and develops cooperation between Sweden and Finland across all levels of society.


    The Programme Department

    Hanaholmen is a competence and resource centre for Swedish-Finnish cooperation. Here at Hanaholmen, our primary mission is to promote cooperation between Sweden and Finland across all levels of society, including politics, business, language, education, art and culture. We want to be an international example of how cooperation creates added value for two countries.

    The activities are diverse and include courses, films, talks and seminars on current topics. Hanaholmen also runs long-term Finnish-Swedish cooperation projects and networks.

    Hanaholmen brings together individuals and organisations, who in turn take concrete steps to further the Swedish-Finnish cooperation. With our work we want to increase knowledge of Finland in Sweden and of Sweden in Finland.

    Most of our events take place at Hanaholmen just outside central Helsinki. In Sweden, we organise Finnish-Swedish seminars and programmes in connection with the Gothenburg Book Fair, Almedalen Week and Folk och Kultur.

    You are welcome to take part in our programmes, and we'd welcome your own suggestions for cooperation!
