October 2019 www.europeanmovement.eu | [email protected] 19:30-21:00 Buffet dinner and networking Description The Future of Europe: Legacy of the Finnish EU-Presidency -seminar brings together esteemed speakers and politicians from Finland and Europe. After the EU-elections and at the end of the Finnish EU-Presi- dency, it is important to analyse the hot topics of European debate properly. The seminar will also be a transition towards the Croatian EU-Presidency, beginning in January 2020 as the last term of the Trio. The seminar is held in Helsinki Music Hall on Thursday 7.11.2019 for 150 guests. The seminar is executed in collaboration with the European Parliament Liaison Office in Helsinki. The seminar is divided into three main segments: 1. Future of Europe: Fight for our Rights and Values Finland – as a small member state – sees rule of law in international politics as one of the most important principles. A rules-based international order is an existential question for this country. Hence, Finland is aiming to push forward the commission’s proposal, where EU could suspend cohesion funds to countries where the rule of law is breached. European values are under attack. The attackers come from within the European union as well as outside our boarders. Far-right political movements, national populism and the geopolitical turmoil caused by unstable superpowers challenge our value base. Hence, Finland has been a strong advocate of European values, such as peace and democracy. The first segment of the seminar is focused on the fight for our rights and values. 2. Future of Europe: The Trio Programme The Finnish EU-Presidency will soon come to an end and the transition towards the Croatian EU-presi- dency is under preparation as we speak. The Trio Programme of January 2019 to June 2020 started with Romanian EU-Presidency and will conclude during the Croatian term. In this segment, the seminar is focused on the Trio Programme and we hear from Minister Tytti Tuppu- rainen and Mr. Josip Blujevic, Ambassador of the Republic of Croatia in Finland. The audience will have a chance to ask questions. 3. Future of Europe: The New European Parliament The last segment of the seminar to the members of the European Parliament, chosen in the election of 2019. As the new European Parliament gathers and starts to work for the future of Europe, the esteemed MEPs and NGO-leaders will discuss, what is the future of Europe from the perspective of the European Parliament. The segment is executed in collaboration with the European Parliament and the Liaison Office in Helsinki. The audience will have a chance to ask questions. In addition, the EP Liaison Office in Helsinki will have the opportunity to present its activities to the 150 people audience during the seminar.

We hope that you will have the opportunity to participate to the EMI Federal Assembly as well as the Future of Europe: Legacy of the Finnish EU-Presidency -seminar held on the 7th of November in the afternoon. Weather in Helsinki As you may guess, the weather in Helsinki in November will be somewhat cold. The daily mean tempera- ture is about 2,7 Celsius, which means that we will likely experience degrees below minus during early mornings, late evenings and nights. It is possible, that we might have snow – but it is more likely we will experience cold showers. In November, the sun will rise at around 8 a.m. and set at just after 4 p.m. local time (UTC +2). Be sure to bring a weatherproof jacket and perhaps gloves and headgear, even though the schedule en- forces only limited time spent outdoors. Arrival and departure Finland is somewhat an island as we are surrounded both by Russia and the Baltic Sea. Hence, coming to Helsinki is most convenient either by plane or via a ferry transport from Stockholm (1,5 days travel time) or Tallinn (3 hours travel time). Arriving via plane, which is by far the most convenient method, you will land on the Helsinki Airport. The airport is located about 20 km outside of Helsinki city centre, which you can reach via train, taxi or bus. Train is the recommended option to travel between the airport and Helsinki city centre. You can get on the train directly from inside the airport and the travel time onboard is about 25-30 minutes. All the trains from the airport travel to Helsinki city centre, so there is little chance of mistakes. The cost of one-way train ticket, called the ABC-ticket, is 4,60 €. Please observe, that you can’t purchase the ticket must be bought from the ticket vending machines on the platforms – they are not sold on train! Taxi is the second viable option to travel between the airport and Helsinki (or your hotel). There are several taxi companies that operate from the airport, but three have designated lanes: 1) Lähitaksi 2) Vantaan Taksi – Helsinki Airport Taxi 3) Taksi Helsinki The other companies all operate on one lane and their prices are usually negotiable. Beware, there are also “dark taxis” that only take payment in cash and might try to cheat you. It is typically best to discuss the price in advance, if using an operator outside the three mentioned above. The average cost for a taxi from the airport to Helsinki city centre is between 25-50 €. Bus would be the least preferable way to travel from the airport to the Helsinki city centre.

Se oli yksi niistä varhaisen pääkaupungin julkisista rakennuksista, joiden suun- nittelusta Carl Ludvig Engel huolehti Johan Albrecht Ehrenströmin joh- taman Helsingin uudelleenrakennuskomitean arkkitehtina (1816-1824). Engelin toiminnasta virkatalon suunnittelijana erottuu menettely, jota ei ta- vata muista uudelleenrakennuskomitean projekteista ja joka oli ylipäätään erittäin harvinainen arkkitehdin suunnittelutuotannossa. Hän nimittäin sisällytti lopulliseen, keisarille esiteltyyn suunnitelmaan kaksi vaihtoehtoa pääfasadiksi. Vaihtoehtoiset fasadipiirustukset ovat molemmat nyttemmin tulleet tutkimuksen ulottuville, toinen vuonna 1987 ja toinen 2006. Eräs yl- lättävä havainto vuonna 1987 oli, että nykyinen pääfasadi, jonka tiedetään säilyneen likipitäen alkuperäisellään, ei kaikin kohdin seurannutkaan vah- vistettua suunnitelmaa. Tässä artikkelissa keskityn käsittelemään pääfasa- din suunnittelua ja mahdollisia motiiveja vaihtoehtoisten fasadipiirustusten laatimiselle. Kuitenkin taustaksi käyn ensin läpi mm. aiemmin hyödyntä- mättä jääneiden kirjallisten lähteiden varassa virkatalon rakennushankkeen perustavia tapahtumia. Näin sitä suuremmalla syyllä, sillä hankkeen eräät piirteet viittaavat

  • Helsinki: an Overview
    Helsinki: An Overview Helsinki, the largest city in Finland, is the nation’s capital and its administrative, economic, scientific and cultural center. The metropolitan area covers 0.2 percent of Finland’s land area, yet 19 percent of the country’s population lives there, generating 30 percent of the nation’s total output. Demographics Helsinki is growing more international at a fast pace. Today 10 percent of Helsinki residents are foreign- born, and the frequency is higher among younger age groups. The proportion of foreign-born residents is expected to rise to 20-25 percent by 2025. Economy Finland’s economy is among the most competitive in the world, according to the World Economic Forum. Helsinki is the engine of Finland’s growth and is the country’s main economic and logistical center. Its industrial structure is diversified, but services and high-tech industries account for a large proportion of output. As the economic weight of Northern Europe shifts eastward, Helsinki is emerging as a regional hub of business and commerce. Located at the heart of the fast-growing Baltic Sea region, 315 miles due east of Stockholm, Helsinki serves as a gateway between East and West. Several daily flights and new high- speed trains link Helsinki to St. Petersburg, and extensive intercontinental flight connections make Helsinki a major hub for the megacities of East Asia, serving 13 million travelers in 2010. Annually, some 9 million ferry passengers travel through the port of Helsinki. Quality of Life Helsinki ranks second among European cities in The Economist Intelligence Unit’s Global Liveability Report (2010).

  • Architecture in Kvarken
    ARCHITECT URE I N K V A R K E N – TWO COUNTRIES - A WORLD OF CONTRAST Get to know the modern cities as well as the old wooden towns in Kvarken. During an architecture tour, you will get to know Kvarken from an architectural perspective, its history, as well as stories about people who lived and live along the coasts of the Gulf of Bothnia. Höga Kusten Umeå Vaasa Seinäjoki Kristinestad Pietarsaari/Jakobstad Kokkola Höga Kusten and Örnsköldsvik Örnsköldsvik, even called Ö-vik, is part of the High Coast and its fantastic nature. Naturum Höga Kusten - is designed by White Architects. Located in the shadow of the mighty Skuleberget. Naturum Höga kusten, is an attention- grabbing building inspired by the nature that surrounds it. Interesting geometric patterns and angular displacements give the building rich and varied expression. It is precisely the rough and anything but 90-degree feeling that characterizes nature on the High Coast. The High Coast is characterized by odd angles and variation in rhythm, scale and color. The glazed long side represents the ice. The inner concrete wall symbolizes the mountain. ArkNat – is a combination of architecture and nature. Architect students from all over Scandinavia were invited to create unique “art” that reminds of typical wind shelters in the nature. As result you will find nine fantastic creations, places to rest or to have a picknick, located along the 128 km long High coast Trail. Ting 1 – is residential building in Örnsköldsvik Ting 1 is designed by Gert Wingårdh, who was inspired by Bengt Lindström's art.

  • Genetic Variation, Big Data and Ageing
    INFRAFRONTIER / IMPC Conference 2019 Genetic Variation, Big Data and Ageing June 3 to 5, 2019 | Helsinki #InfrafrontierConf #InfraConfHelsinki WELCOME Dear colleagues, After two productive meetings in Athens (2017) and Munich (2018), the joint conference of the INFRAFRONTIER research infrastructure and the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC) has successfully established itself as the global platform for scientific exchange between experts from basic research to clinical research in the biomedical field – with a focus on functional phenogenomics. Martin Hrabě de Angelis This summer, we welcome you to Helsinki, the beautiful capital of INFRAFRONTIER, Finland. The aim of the INFRAFRONTIER/IMPC Conference 2019 is to Scientific Director discuss three hot topics in modern biomedical research: Genetic Variation: Understanding the functional consequences of human genetic variation and its impact on genetic diseases is critically important. This task involves systematic mutagenesis in appropriate models emulating human genetic variation, together with comprehensive genotypic and phenotypic analysis. Big Data: The availability of vast amounts of genomic and pheno­ typic data in the IMPC and INFRAFRONTIER databases offers the po­ tential to transform the biomedical research landscape. To carefully collect, analyse and interpret these huge datasets will be essential Steve Brown IMPC, Scientific Chair for the progress of genomic medicine. Ageing: In a setting of rapidly ageing societies across Europe, Ame­ rica, and Asia, new findings into the genetics of ageing processes and age­related disorders uncovered using animal models are pivo­ tal to not only extending life but also improving its quality. We are grateful to our colleagues at the University of Oulu, together with the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture and the Acade­ my of Finland, for their kind support in organizing this conference.

Saksalaissyntyisen Carl Ludvig Engelin sopeutuminen Suomeen Pro gradu –tutkielma, s. 137 Suomen historia Toukokuu 2007 Johan Carl Ludvig Engel (1778–1840) syntyi ja kouluttautui arkkitehdiksi Berliinissä, Preussissa, josta hän vuonna 1808 työpulan vuoksi hakeutui töihin ulkomaille. Ensin hän toimi neljä vuotta Tallinnan kaupungin arkkitehtinä ja vuonna 1816 hänet kutsuttiin Suomeen Helsinkiin pääkaupungin uudelleenrakennustoimikunnan pääarkkitehdiksi. Vuodesta 1824 kuolemaansa vuoteen 1840 asti Engel palveli Suomen intendenttikonttorin (entinen Rakennushallitus, nykyään Senaatti-kiinteistöt) johtajana, intendenttinä. Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa keskityttiin arkkitehti Engelin yksityiseen puoleen. Hänet tunnetaan merkittävänä alansa vaikuttajana Suomen 1800-luvun rakennustaiteessa. Täten oli mielenkiintoista tietää, että millainen persoona Johan Carl Ludvig Engel oli ja mitä hänen ajanvietteisiinsä kuului. Kysymyksiin etsittiin vastauksia tarkastelemalla hänen perhetaustojaan, omaa perhettään, suhtautumista itseensä, muihin ja maailmaan sekä tutkimalla Engelin kotioloja Helsingissä, hänen ajanvietteitään ja ihmissuhteitaan. Engelin esimerkin kautta oli tarkoitus tarkastella yksilön ja yhteisön suhdetta. Erityisesti kiinnostavaa oli se,

    Religion in Finnish high school students’ eyes The Holy Bible Not so many high school students have read The Holy Bible For example in the first class of Juankoski high school 3 out of 19 16- year old students have read The Holy Bible Church Religion appears in Finnish people’s lives in many ways. Finnish people go to church, some more than others, but usually at least once a year. Religion is a private matter to Finns. Although only a small minority of Finnish people are active members of church, the majority of Finnish people want to belong to church.

  • Helsinki Finland
    LUCI Annual General Meeting Helsinki Finland 23rd to 27th September 2015 Programme LUCI Annual General Meeting rd th Helsinki Finland 23 to 27 September 2015 am pleased and delighted to welcome the LUCI Annual General I Meeting to Helsinki. You have chosen the optimal time to visit our city. Helsinki is expanding faster than ever before with the construction of completely new districts. For example, Kruunuvuorenranta, a residential community under development at the site of a former oil terminal, will be profiled as a neighbourhood of light. Outdoor lighting will be an important part of this process as the City of Helsinki aims to build sustainable, safe and pleasant EDITORIALS neighbourhoods, where people can enjoy both work and leisure. Our northern location makes the city ideal for innovative lighting schemes, following the long winter period. In new outdoor lighting projects, we highlight the importance of sustainability and energy efficiency. Consequently, the total energy consumption of outdoor lighting in Helsinki has decreased by 25% since 1997, while the number of lighting points has increased by 19%. I look forward to sharing experiences and best practices in this extremely interesting field and to welcoming you in Helsinki. Jussi Pajunen Mayor of Helsinki t’s a great pleasure to gather in Helsinki for the 2015 edition of Iour Annual General Meeting! Following the success of last year’s AGM in Dubrovnik (Croatia), the LUCI network brings together cities and professionals from all over the world to share ideas, experiences, and broaden their perspectives in the ever evolving field of lighting. With a focus on northern lights, LUCI members will have the exceptional opportunity to discover the many facets of outdoor lighting in Helsinki, a global and inspiring policy including the implementation of new lighting technologies based on the most recent research results, architectural lighting, light and art and festive lighting projects.
