The Crisis Management Centre Finland (CMC Finland), located in Helsinki, is a government institution and a centre of expertise in civilian crisis management. In accordance with its statutory duties, the CMC is responsible for training, recruiting and equipping Finnish civilian crisis management experts for international tasks. It also carries out work related to research and development. CMC Finland acts as a national head office for all seconded Finnish civilian crisis management professionals.

The responsibility of civilian crisis management is shared between two ministries in Finland: the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of the Interior. The Ministry for Foreign Affairs is responsible for the political coordination of civilian crisis management and hence decides which missions Finnish experts take part in while the Ministry of the Interior is responsible for issues concerning national capacity building on a strategic level.
