  2. Why the Baltic?

  3. BALTIC SEA • 14 states in the drainage area • EU internal sea – 90 % • long history of co-operation in • culture, economy, trading etc. • common environmental problems • algal blooms • toxic substances • overfishing etc. • long history of research • co-operation • ICES • joint international agreements • HELCOM (environment) • IBSFC (fisheries) • EU Water Framework Directive • Marine Research in ERA • CREST • ESFRI (infrastructure)

  12. Bonus for the Baltic Sea ScienceNetwork of Funding Agencies ERA-NET, funding 3.03 million euros Objective • to form a network and partnership of key agencies funding research with the aim to deepen the understanding of conditions for science-based management of environmental issues in the Baltic Sea The aim is to gradually and systematically create conditions for a joint Baltic Sea research programme including • programme management • evaluation schemes • infrastructure • administration and legal issues • postgraduate training Time frame: 2004-2007

  25. Added value created by BONUS • new collaboration between funding organisations • directs research to meet the needs arising from the society – Environmental problems of the Baltic Sea • integrates research funding with environmental policy → complements the work done by the Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission, International Baltic Sea Fisheries Commission • ensures high quality of research • encourages multinational research cooperation • funds from the EU 7th Framework Programme • ERA-NET Plus • Article 169

  26. The problem of a ’Common Pot’ • the goal of the ERA-NET scheme is the opening of national programmes • the Commission is both pushing and attracting the Member States to go towards a common pot • ...”the more open your programme is, the more the Commission will support… • ...up to 50 % topping of your own research funds allocation if the programme is open…. otherwise some 10 % only…. • most of the BONUS partners have legal and administrative barriers which prevent the common pot • BONUS has to find means to take the advantage of all the flexibility that exists
