The Baltic Sea Project
funds Baltic Sea protection
Since 2014, the Bank of Åland has been running the Baltic Sea Project to fund projects that improve the state of the Baltic Sea. Funding is available in five different categories, and individuals, companies, school classes and research groups alike can apply for funding for their projects.
The funding call is open from early summer to the end of September (30.9.2019). After the application period has closed, the jury will review the applications and select the best projects for the public vote, which will open in January. The project that gets the most public votes will get funding. The amount of funding will be decided by the jury based on the scope, goals and funding requirements of the project.
