What will happen in Malmi’s Longinojanpuisto in the coming years

The aim of the GreenInCities project is to develop Longinojanpuisto and its activities together with the citizens. A series of events will be held for residents and participants in 2025–2027, where the local nature will be explored and solutions increasing the biodiversity of Longinojanpuisto will be developed together. Volunteer work and other events that improve natural conditions will be arranged for residents. A management and development plan will be prepared for the park together and will be implemented in 2026–2027.

City residents' participation in the development of Malmi and Longinojanpuisto will be strengthened by various events, where they will learn new things about nature and take concrete actions together for the benefit of nature.
