2.2 We will establish the operating model of the Open Government Civil Society Academy nationally and at the regional level in order to deepen cooperation

• We will work with stakeholders to establish the annual Civil Society Academy for open government. We will increase active joint communication so public officials and officeholders will participate in the Civil Society Academy events
  even more.
• We will establish and expand regional civil society academies to build cooperation in cities, municipalities and/or regions: we will provide a readymade model and give motivation into its use. The aim is to create regional
  academies in different parts of Finland.
• We will organize the Open Government Civil Society Academy also on international and EU themes.
• With the help of the Academies, we will strengthen the expertise of civil servants in civil society. We will provide training on this subject in the eOppiva training platform.
