Together, the Expert Group has gained more than 20-years of experience in working on sustainability policies within the Baltic Sea Region through knowledge-sharing, outreach and project work.
There are no borders in nature and the countries in the Baltic Sea Region face the same specific risks and challenges – most of them can only be solved if we work together.
We believe that all levels of society must share responsibility and participate in finding sustainable solutions.
That is why we are continuously building purpose-oriented partnerships, commissioning studies, conducting trainings, facilitating projects and providing policy input to strengthen sustainability practices and climate adaptation processes. Currently, our main goal is to translate the UN Sustainable Development Goals into local objectives for the Baltic Sea Region.
