Today we mark the International Day of Peace.🕊️

Finland has been in the forefront of supporting young people in peace processes. Investing in young peacebuilders and building partnerships across regions strengthens not only individual capacities but also the inclusiveness and sustainability of peace efforts. The Youth Peace Mediators Mentoring Programme, a joint effort of Finland and South Africa, puts this approach into practice.

What does peace look like to the participants of the mentoring programme?

As co-chair of the Media Freedom Coalition, Finland champions media freedom around the world. Finland's Public Broadcaster Yle’s 100th anniversary offers a timely opportunity to reflect on the role of independent public-service media in democratic societies.

Did you know public-service broadcasters helped shape some of Europe’s biggest shared experiences, including Eurovision? 🎤 In a rapidly changing media landscape, public-service media continue to provide trusted information, strengthen democratic debate, and help societies stay informed and connected.
