Inclusion increases people's well-being and trust in other people, attachment to society and prevents social exclusion. Lack of participation is common and communities need to work towards real equality. Discriminatory structures need to be identified and dismantled, competence to promote diversity improved, plurality defended boldly, and safe opportunities for participation created for all.
This guide was compiled in the Equal Oulu2026 project, which aimed to promote diversity and strengthen the inclusion of minorities in Northern Ostrobothnia and Kainuu. The project is co-funded by the European Union.
