Interreg pays off!
Explore how people in the Baltic Sea region have been benefitting from our projects.
What are we doing?
In Interreg, we connect people from various cultures, sectors and governance levels across the whole Baltic Sea region. We create opportunities for people in multiple organisations from different countries to work together in joint projects. These connections and care for the shared topic often transcend into long-lasting and trusted cooperation networks in the region. Bringing people together builds the overall resilience of the region.
Why is it special?
Our projects tackle issues that matter to the people in the region. Ultimately, people are the ones who benefit from them. Yet, our Programme is more than funding individual projects. We empower public administrations to drive a systemic transition to a green and resilient region, making use of shared solutions and boosted competences of all players involved. All this is possible thanks to efficient work beyond borders, across sectors and governance levels, filling up the missing gaps and pushing the processes forward.
How do we do it?
At least three partners from three Programme countries team up in each project (ten on average, though). Working hand in hand with the key players in the region, these partnerships experiment with the new approaches, implement and roll out joint solutions across the region and/or prepare grounds to make it happen. In response to the people’s need, they often trigger policy change, too.
Interreg pays off because it brings people together: today and tomorrow.
It pays off to work jointly on key challenges, connecting key players and building synergies.
It pays off to test solutions first before we roll them out across the region.
Ready for an exceptional journey?
We invite you to the world of Interreg where impossible doesn’t exist, shared challenges bring people together and a joint vision builds bridges stronger than concrete. For 25+ years now, cities, institutions, communities and individuals from around the Baltic Sea have been benefitting from #MadeWithInterreg solutions. We’ve brought and keep bringing the Baltic Sea region closer to a green and resilient future.
