Julkisuudenhallinnassa

Julkisuudenhallinnassa is a Finnish concept that refers to the governance and management of information about public officials, government agencies, and other entities that are subject to public scrutiny. The term is often used in the context of Finnish public administration and its practices.

In Finland, julkisuudenhallinnassa is based on the idea that information about public officials and their activities should be available to the public. This includes personal data, organizational structures, decision-making processes, and other information that might be of public interest. The goal is to promote transparency, accountability, and trust in government institutions.

Finnish public administration has developed a comprehensive framework for julkisuudenhallinnassa, which includes the Act on the Openness of Government Activities (Finland 2019). This act requires public authorities to make certain information available to the public, and to provide access to documentation and decision-making processes.

In addition to the act, there are several other laws, regulations, and guidelines that govern julkisuudenhallinnassa in Finland. For example, the Government Decree on the Disclosure of Information (Finland 2009) sets out specific requirements for the disclosure of information by government agencies.

Julkisuudenhallinnassa is an important aspect of Finnish public administration, as it helps to ensure that public officials and agencies are accountable to the public and that information is available to those who need it. The concept has also been the subject of academic research and international comparison.
