111 As a growing city near Helsinki, the preservation of Vantaa’s historical and cultural environment is important to promote sustainable development, improve people’s quality of life and reinforce social and cultural cohesion. When the city realised that traditional urban cultural programmes from the 1990s no longer fit, mostly due to the lack of residents’ support, a narrow policy approach to cultural environment and lack of monitoring and evaluation, they decided to take another path and started working on a new Cultural Environment Programme, strongly involving the local communities in the development of it. In parallel, to raise the awareness of children and youth about the local cultural environments, the city developed a digital game in the style of Pokemon Go. Vantaa made the most of its local cultural and creative industries by working with the local game company to develop the game. What? More info Play the game!
