Uudistuvissa

Uudistuvissa is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb uudistua, meaning to reform, renew, or become renewed. The word is the inessive plural form of the present active participle uudistuva, which translates roughly as “renewing” or “in the process of renewing.” When used, uudistuvissa functions as an adjective describing plural nouns, indicating that the subjects are currently undergoing renewal or reform.

In typical use, uudistuvissa appears together with a plural noun in the inessive case, for example uudistuvissa organisaatioissa or uudistuvissa yhteisöissä. The construction signals an ongoing process of change within the referenced entities, rather than a completed reform. The form is common in academic, policy, and media language when discussing modernization, organizational change, or cultural shift.

The term is related to, but distinct from, uudistus (a reform or reform act) and to other participial forms such as uudistuva (singular) or uudistuvia (genitive/partitive plural). The choice of uudistuvissa emphasizes ongoing activity and collective renewal among multiple actors or institutions.

Examples:

- Uudistuvissa organisaatioissa muutosjohtaminen on keskeistä.

- Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan, miten uudistuvissa yhteisöissä säilytetään identiteetti muutosprosessin keskellä.

Overall, uudistuvissa is a precise, context-dependent descriptor for groups or systems that are actively undergoing renewal or reform.
