The Baltic Sea faces vast urgent challenges due to a surplus of phosphorus, nitrogen and pollutants (by being one of the busiest maritime areas in the world). The ongoing threat of a diminishing biodiversity and increased eutrophication (mainly due to NH3, NO?, PO4) is most likely the biggest challenge that the region currently faces from an environmental perspective. In addition to this, there has been a recent increase in awareness of the amounts of microplastics, up to 40 tonnes annually, being released to the Baltic Sea and the consequences these particles have on the maritime environment. At the same time the Baltic Sea Region is one of the most innovative regions in the world when looking at new green technologies. Using this interregional potential to solve the above mentioned challenges is what we want to achieve in the project “Reviving Baltic Resilience (RBR)”. By using prior experiences from previous EU projects (Euroslam for example) as well as acquiring new data and knowledge, we aim to look at proactive methods/technologies for preventing nutrients/pollutants and microplastics reaching the Baltic Sea. Being proactive and focusing on the prevention (rather than reacting and trying to clean maritime environment) will be of key importance if we want to revive our biggest regional asset, the Baltic Sea. The reason why we are applying for the seed financing is in order to be able to build a solid and diverse partnership which we feel is one of the most crucial success factors in an interreg-project. It is also of highest importance to be able to create the most beneficial activities with these partners, creating an inclusive environment to tackle the issues mentioned above. Being an University and not having the financial liquidity to do this by ourselves, we feel that that the seed financing is the only tool available to us in proceeding with this cross-border project.
