The Interreg South Baltic Programme 2021-2027 will soon open the 1st Small-scale projects (SSP) call for proposals. The call is to be open between 22 February – 21 March 2024.

Partner search in the Programme is also supported by Contact Points (CPs). If you are looking for project partners or would like to join a project, please approach the relevant CP. Their contact details are available here. For your request to be considered, please provide comprehensive information to CPs. For projects looking for partners it is compulsory to provide the CPs with project concept form when approaching them.
It is strongly advised to approach the respective CP (i.e. in the region where the given organisation is located) if privately owned project partners are included to the partnership (SMEs are not eligible partners in the SSP call, but NGOs are) to check the eligibility of the organisations.
Individual project consultations
To support the development of good quality projects, the JS provides individual project consultations online. The consultations are organised between 5-7 March and 12-14 March. Each project idea under development can take part once in the consultations. The project must be represented by the lead partner that may invite further project partners. The consultations meetings are conducted in English and last up to an hour.
In order to take part in the consultations, the lead partner must register seven days before the date of the meeting the latest. In order to take part in the consultations, the completed project idea template must be sent to the JS five days before the meeting. You can download the template here.
