Chair of HELCOM Working Group on Biodiversity, Protection and Restoration & Senior Specialist, Metsähallitus Parks & Wildlife Finland

Lasse Kurvinen, Senior Specialist at Metsähallitus Parks & Wildlife Finland, has extensive expertise in marine nature conservation, particularly in relation to Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). He has been involved in national-level responsibilities from early on, including protected area planning, status assessments, and marine data management.

Currently, Kurvinen's work focuses primarily on international cooperation in marine conservation.
