Front page Samuli Manu Samuli Manu Specialist M.Soc.Sc. 050 356 3980 samuli.manu@mdi.fi Public administration Public governance Steering Studies and research Cultural programmes Twitter LinkedIn I believe that an understanding of administration and its operational environment helps us to outline the means and possibilities to move to a more sustainable society. I work in particular with projects commissioned and/or funded by actors in the state administration that are typically different kinds of research and study assignments. The strategic cultural development of cities and municipalities is another central entity in my work portfolio. My strengths as a specialist relate to the changes occuring in public administration and public governance, the relationship between administration and societal phenomena and the transformation and steering of different kinds of policy mixes.
