Eedla Rahikainen is Demos Helsinki’s very own lawyer and Senior Expert in socio-ecological justice.

She is driven by the mission to harness law for impact, working especially on topics of ecological and transitional justice, governance and deliberative democracy as part of the TANDEM project. She also acts as the secretary of the board of Demos Helsinki.

Eedla has graduated as a Master of Laws (LL.M.) from University of Helsinki. Prior to Demos Helsinki, she has worked as the CEO of a legal HR company Paragraaffi and in the consultancy business at Trainers’ House.

Outside of work, Eedla is more likely to be found at sea or in a forest than at home. Also “all-things-grandma” are her piece of cake, including knitting, gardening and aqua-jogging.
