Distribution to the media
The language of the press release can be Finnish or English. If the press release is done in English, the Communications and Marketing will translate the topic and the introductory paragraph into Finnish. In some cases it might be relevant to translate the whole press release into Finnish.
Only the Finnish version of the press release will be send to the media. The media represented in the Finnish distribution list are the largest national newspapers and broadcasting companies, and regional and local newspapers. The Communications and Marketing will also publish the press release (in Finnish and/or English) on the university's website and official social media channels.
You can agree on sending the press release to any other popular publications and magazines and smaller local newspapers. As a researcher, naturally, you are responsible for communicating with publications in your own field and with your co-operation partners.
