Immigrants and associations launch social media service Monimos
Immigrants living in Finland and associations working on immigration related issues are launching a web service for promoting societal discussion and active citizenship (
http://www.monimos.fi/). This is the first time in Finland when there is a possibility for immigrant associations to introduce their objectives and activities in one site and to participate and influence on societal issues. New social media service provides an opportunity for networking for both for individuals and for associations.

Associations, researchers, authorities and media are invited to the launch event. Monimos-social media service will be introduced by the project team. Opening speech will be given by Ms. Johanna Suurpää, head of the Democracy and Language Affairs Unit.
