Hanna Tolonen Selected as THL's Director of RDI
Hanna Tolonen, Doctor of Public Health, has been selected as the Director of Research, Development, and Innovation at THL.
For the past two years, Tolonen has served as the research program director at THL, responsible for monitoring and forecasting population health and well-being.
"Research is a central part of THL's operations. Without our own research, there cannot be strong expertise. We need high-quality research that provides the basis for developing and evaluating projects. New innovations are the result of research and development activities," says Tolonen.
Three New Research Programs Planned
THL is planning three new RDI programs to be launched in the autumn.
"The new RDI programs, formed according to THL's strategic priorities, play a central role in developing our operations. The programs aim to work closely with stakeholders and partners both nationally and internationally. Cooperation and open interaction create the foundation for high-quality RDI activities that serve the entire society," says Tolonen.
Our Strategic Goals at THL:
- Well-being Population: We offer sustainable solutions for implementing health and well-being promoting decisions and choices.
- Equitable Services: We emphasize cooperation with well-being areas and therefore boldly renew our role.
- Safe Society: We strengthen society's ability to maintain everyday security and face crises.
- High-Quality Data: We evaluate and renew our data operations and improve national social and health information management.
- Impactful RDI Activities: We focus our RDI activities on phenomena that significantly impact population well-being.
- Proactive and Learning THL: We strengthen our ability to anticipate, our expertise, and the sustainability of our operations.
