EAPN Finland is a partnership network of organisations, associations and action groups.
The aims of EAPN-Fin are to improve the situation of people experiencing poverty and social exclusion, and to promote social rights, basic security, welfare and independent life.
EAPN Finland was founded on 27 October 1994. As a starting point was a European project owned by social and health organisations.
Today the network consists of 37 member organisations with thousands of members, working mostly around issues such as poverty, public health, disability, alcohol and drug policy, social welfare, health policy, child welfare, mental illness and protection of patients at law. We emphasise that human dignity and deferential treatment are everyone’s basic human rights. Better balance between social rights and market freedoms is possible.
