The organization is responsible for creating the "Oma Pajo" choir, Finnish language "Carelia" newspaper and the "Oma Mua" newspaper in 1990 and "Vienan Karjala" newspaper in 2000. The Union of Karelian People also organized education in Karelian in the PetrSU, the "Čičiliusku" puppet theatre company and popularized the game of Kyykkä in the Republic. The UKP works closely with the Ministry of the Republic of Karelia for National Policy and the Finnish Union of White Sea Karelians.
