Physical environment

(Responsible person Jouni Varis)

Physical accessibility is an integral part of the university’s rescue plan. Our campus environment—outdoor areas, buildings, rooms, and furnishings—is designed to be fully accessible. Clear information about accessibility is available on the university’s public website, ensuring transparency for all. In addition, established practices guarantee that staff are well-informed about the accessibility and location of classrooms and other facilities.

Goals and Actions 2025-27

Broader use of facility videos to promote accessibility

  • Videos will be added to Pakki, Intra, and Karelia’s website. Explore how these materials can be utilized, for example, as part of student recruitment and support measures for international students.

Ensure documents are up to date

  • Emergency plans will be updated annually or as needed. Emergency plans will be accessible in Karelia’s break rooms via QR codes.
