• National Taiwan University, Hallym University (South Korea), Technical University of Eindhoven (the Netherlands) ; Xiamen University (China) ... ENoLL members
• the network will provide a co-creation platform for those who are eager to develop different types of innovation from the micro to the macro level, and especially innovation that tackles issues related to ageing societies
• the network has adopted the principles of open and user driven innovation (the so called LivingLabs approach) next to the more traditional RDI methodologies.

Finnish Research and innovation policy guidelines for 2011–2015
The Research and Innovation Council, chaired by the Prime Minister, has adopted the policy report on education,
research and innovation policy. The objective is for Finland to strengthen its position among the top knowledge and competence-based countries. The basic requirement for balanced and sustainable development is growth in productivity. Education, research and innovation policy supports economic growth and the positive development of the national economy, the sustainable renewal of society and the well-being of Finnish citizens. The programme will
accelerate the reform of the research and innovation system initiated under the current government.
- non-technological & social innovation- involve all stakeholders into practical solutions & new businesses- public sector promote the emergence of lead markets (policy tools like public
procurement)- internationalisation- Centres of Expertise Programme (OSKE) and Strategic Centres of Excellence
(SHOKKI)- The level of education will be raised- R&D funding share of GDP 4% + increase of public funding a minimum
4.0%per annum => e.g. promotion of demand and user-based innovation activities and experiments

Final report of the Country Brand Delegation http://www.tehtavasuomelle.fi/documents/TS_Report_A4_EN.pdf
VISION 2030What will Finland’s place and role be in the world ?...4/7 Finland will bring clean water and schooling to areas ravaged by
conflictsFinland will be involved in peace mediation all over the world, with a particular
focuson water-related expertise and the provision of basic education in areas
ravaged byconflicts. Finland’s expertise and efforts will be appreciated, and our views will
becarefully listened to in the framework of international cooperation.
In 2030, Finland and Finns will play a prominent role in finding solutions to theworld’s most wicked problems: together with others, teaching one another andfocusing on the solution. That is, blatantly, openly and sometimes in a
somewhatstrange manner. The way only a Finn can.

LbD = student-centric research and development work integrated into learning
• LbD is a system of learning and human development that mobilizes and harnesses human creative talent en masse. It is a learning system that integrates education with research, development and innovation operations (RDI); consequently, it fuels our collective creativity. In addition, it provides each student the tools to develop and utilize his or her creative talents fully in order to generate a livelihood for him or herself and to foster productivity for society as a whole

Learning by Developing – a Unique Way to Study
• The working life oriented learning method Learning by Developing is a pedagogical innovation developed by Laurea.
• The LbD -projects are conducted in partnership with the world of industry and commerce, which means that authentic workplace issues are selected as subjects of studying.
• For students LbD is a new way to get the competence needed in working life: they grow from learners into experts with excellent employment opportunities within their specific fields.

Feedback on Laurea Centre of Excellence (FINHEEC)
• The students‘ participation in R&D has been raised to a new level, so that they are now the main activating forces in the process
• supported by Laurea's management and it is purposefully developed throughout the organisation
• a vision-based management model - incentivising for staff - communities of experts based on the interests of the parties involved
• a regional operator and partner in the metropolitan area - in continuous interaction with the environment
• many of the articles and conference presentations have involved students
• Laurea has determined the core competences included in all of its degree programmes, taken into account the context of each degree in curriculum development, and improved competence evaluation procedures04/08/2023 21
Feedback on Centre of Excellence
• Laurea has defined its core competence in relation to the operating environment's competence needs in terms of areas of focus, from which it has also derived the core competences for each degree programme
• The Learning by Developing core process strives to bring together employers and the workplace, employment-related research and development, and learning. Student-centric R&D is the connecting link between Laurea's three main tasks, when the students' projects are aimed at developing employment in the local region.
• In feedback, students especially mentioned the possibility of doing the right tasks in projects, and the appropriateness of their studies. Another strength that was mentioned was the improvement of team work and interaction skills, although imbalances in the degree of participation appear to be a challenge for teachers to tackle in the active student community and the commitment-demanding study model.
• One of the particular strengths of R&D activities at Laurea University of Applied Sciences is the role of students as central actors and takers of responsibility.
04/08/2023 22
Feedback on Centre of Excellence
• Despite the strong emphasis on R&D, theory and practice are well balanced in the education. Student-centric R&D is particularly well suited to universities of applied sciences, and Laurea can set an example for the whole of Finland.
• The generally high level of results indicates that student-centric R&D is a good choice for pedagogy
• Laurea produces the highest number of ECTS credits from R&D. In addition, the students' participation in publication, project preparation and even project management activities proves that they are central actors in Laurea's R&D operations.
• Other strengths are Laurea's open interaction with its operating environment, its agility in responding to the needs of the environment, and the apparent functionality of its management model.

Pisa vs. “to grow by helping others to grow in to their own fullest potential”
Education of teachers:• learning to understand the reality of school and
teachers work is more important than managing it• A prerequisite for the success of the training is that
the trainers and students are able to build a community with which it is possible and safe to begin to do research.
• “In education and training, you will learn in an authentic situation how to understand and face phenomena related to learning, teaching, as well as being an individual or a member of the community”
• Experience and diversity of the team are the starting point for training
