Laurea’s societal impact report for 2019

We are pleased to present you with our report describing the societal impact and interaction of Laurea University of Applied Sciences. This annual report is Laurea’s contribution to discussions about the impact of the higher education institution. The report takes a people-oriented approach, mirroring Laurea’s approach to education and research.

Laurea focuses on  regional  development  and  has always strived to build future operations on the foundation of prior experiences and learning. This report of our societal impact and interaction contains various examples of good practices and indicators, in which we have emphasised continuous monitoring and learning from prior experience.

We believe that examples focusing on people and brief case studies reflecting our practical activities are the best way to demonstrate the depth and qualitative aspects of our impact. For the purpose of this report, we have grouped the various measures that impact citizens, communities and society based on the themes of Laurea’s strategy 2030.

While long-term changes are usually the most interesting results, they are also the most difficult ones to measure. We hope that you find this review of our activities in 2019 interesting and thought-provoking. Feel free to contact us for more information.
