Heikki Lauha

Specialist, Programmes

I work as a Specialist in the Democratic Innovations programme. With my team, I focus especially on developing deliberative citizens’ panels and establishing their use at different levels of public administration. I also work with issues related to the well-being and inclusion of children and young people.

I have a master’s degree in social sciences and I am also a teacher of history and social studies. I have almost 20 years of experience in specialist tasks in education and training and in digitisation in the youth sector. I am particularly interested in innovations that strengthen young people’s agency in society.

Contact me if you are interested in new ways of participation in society or if promoting the well-being of young people is close to your heart.
