About the PSF

The Council of the Baltic Sea States (CBSS) established the Project Support Facility (PSF) in 2012 to provide co-financing for projects across the Baltic Sea Region, with the aim of promoting sustainable partnerships in line with the CBSS’s three long-term priority areas. The first PSF Call was launched in 2013.

The PSF invites all eligible actors in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR) to apply for grants to implement small-scale projects. These projects can be community-based or profession/expert-based, and aim to foster sustainable development in the BSR.

  • Projects shall emphasise the development of sustainable processes and networks aimed to bring added value for the BSR and to at least one of the CBSS long-term priority areas as well as to bring added value to and visibility for macro-regional cooperation in the Baltic Sea Region. 
  • Projects must involve partners from at least three CBSS Member States including a lead partner;
  • The maximum amount of co-financing granted is 65 000 euros;
  • The project proposals may be initiated by individuals, groups, organisations, institutions, associations and companies in the CBSS Member States, as well as members of CBSS Expert Groups and CBSS Networks;
  • The granted projects should have the potential to become a basis for a network, partnership or cooperation model that would become viable beyond the duration of the project life itself.
