Innovative, water-smart and climate-neutral societies
Calls are open: consult your idea!
If you are planning to apply in the open call for small project applications, or project platform applications make sure that you submit your project (platform) idea form (PIF) in time. Based on the form, you can receive individual consultations with the Managing Authority/Joint Secretariat. This is how you can receive individual tips and hints how to build a good quality project application.
Note: consultations for applicants applying for project platforms are obligatory!
Consultations in a nutshell
In our Programme, you can request individual consultations and receive tailored feedback to your project idea. Before you request consultations, you need to submit a Project Idea Form (PIF) or Project Platform Idea Form to the Managing Authority/Joint Secretariat. Note that sending your PIF is obligatory in our Programme: make sure that you submit it in time!
The Project Idea Form (PIF) / Project Platform Idea Form is a document in which you present the essence of your project idea. Use this opportunity to describe what situation in the Baltic Sea region you would like to improve through the project, and what specific challenge or gap you will address considering the outcomes of the projects you are bringing into your project. Clearly define the partnership you are building and the target groups that you address in your project.
Note: consultations for applicants applying for project platforms are obligatory!
Project (Platform) Idea Form (PIF)
Download a PIF template before you start working together with your partners to fill it in. Once it is ready, submit your PIF for small projects to idea@interreg-baltic.eu. Submit your Project Platform Idea Forms to platform@interreg-baltic.eu. The Managing Authority/Joint Secretariat will process each PIF and register it.
As a lead partner, you will receive a registration number of your PIF via e-mail. You will need this number in order to apply for access to the electronic data exchange system BAMOS+. It is the system you will use to develop and submit your full application.
NOTE: we no longer accept new Project Idea Forms for small projects. The deadline was on 5 June.
