One of the ways for the Regional Council of Kainuu to implement the regional programme is by preparing and implementing own projects related to the organisations’ tasks and the focus points of the regional strategy. The organisation may also subcontract such activities, co-finance projects and/ or act as a partner in projects. International regional development policy initiatives are an important instrument for Kainuu.

Our projects are prepared and carried out by the experts of different fields within our organisation. Please feel free to contact us!
