Preserving the environment is essential


PROMOTING BIODIVERSITY

Hunters and landowners play a key role in maintaining and enhancing biodiversity in Finland.

PROJECTS

Archipelago project

This project monitors the state of the Baltic Sea and archipelago environment, mainly by tracking the population development and well-being of archipelago birds, especially the eider.

Natural Pastures project

Natural pastures enhance biodiversity, from soil microorganisms to insects and plants, and provide valuable feeding grounds and habitats for many mammals and birds.

Active conservation on economically used land


Most of Finland’s land is privately owned and utilised for profitable agriculture and forestry. Active, planned habitat management on these lands complements the traditional, passive preservation of nature in both conservation areas and non-protected natural environments. This combination of active management and passive preservation ensures the best possible conservation of Finnish biodiversity today.
