Funder: Formas
Due Dates: December 9, 2026: Application deadline
Funding Amounts: No direct funding provided; participation offers networking, visibility, and collaboration benefits.
Summary: Opportunity for projects to join regional portfolios advancing sustainable blue economy research in the Baltic and North Sea regions.
Key Information: This is a call for expressions of interest to join a collaborative network, not a funding grant.
This call, coordinated by Formas under the Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership, aims to assemble ongoing research projects into two regional portfolios: the Baltic Sea and North Sea. The initiative is designed to foster collaboration, networking, and information sharing among projects addressing ecosystem resilience, sustainable marine resource management, and nature-based solutions in these sea basins. Selected projects will participate in a two-year networking period (early 2027 to early 2029), benefiting from increased visibility, stakeholder engagement, and strategic collaboration opportunities. No direct funding is provided; the focus is on amplifying impact and facilitating cooperation across existing projects.
