Dates confirmed for 2018 calls
Our Monitoring Committee has approved the final schedule of calls for applications in 2018. If you wish to apply for funds from the North Sea Region Programme this year, we advise you to bookmark these dates and take note of important deadlines.
Start your application process early
For each call, there is a preparation phase and a submission phase.
In the preparation phase, you can start putting your application together in our Online Monitoring System. Also, you may consult with the relevant Project Advisors in the Secretariat about your project idea.
In the submission phase, you can submit your application via the Online Monitoring System as soon as it is ready. During this period, your access to Secretariat support is strictly limited to technical guidance, for example on which state aid scheme an individual beneficiary should choose. However, you may continue to consult the National Contact Points about the content of your application until you submit it.
We advise you to start working on your application as soon as the preparation phase starts as this enables you to receive qualified feedback on your project idea and concepts.
Please note that we provide a customised list of relevant online guidance for each call. We invite you to check these resources out first before you contact the Secretariat with specific questions.
