Events
Throughout the preparation and run-up to launching the new programme, we are hosting events to consult, involve and inform our stakeholders.
Upcoming events
North Sea Conference 23-25 May 2022
The North Sea Conference will partly focus on the future programme. Due to the surge in the Covid-19 pandemic, the conference has been postponed until May 2022.
Completed events
Below is a complete list of past events linked to the new programme, including recordings and presentations where possible.
Webinar 22 February
The webinar on 22 February focused on the intervention logic and explaining to applicants how indicators are defined and used in the new programme. The webinar featured a question and answer session and a lot of useful tips.
As part of the webinar, the capacity building result indicator was discussed and there were questions asked about how it should be used in practice. We have therefore developed a short presentation with more information about this indicator. You can find that here.
Webinar 2 December
Our webinar on 2 December provided applicants with the latest information on the first call of the 2021-2027 Programme.
Webinar 10 November 2021: Small-scale projects
The new North Sea Programme will have a new type of project, called 'small-scale project'. Are you curious to hear what this is about? Are you thinking about applying for a small-scale project? Watch the recording to find out what the main features of small-scale projects are in terms of timeframe, programme rules, and finances.
Webinar 8 November 2021: Project goals
Objectives, indicators, intervention logic; what does that mean and how do they work together in the new North Sea Programme? This webinar makes you familiar with these terms and introduces to you how they should be used. They are all crucial for your project and for your application.
Webinar 2 November 2021: Project expenses
This webinar covered project finances. What type of cost are eligible for funding and how do you set this up in a project application? How does the co-financing work, and do you apply national or EU-rules?
Webinar 1 November 2021: Soft launch
The official 'soft launch' of the new North Sea Programme 2021-2027. In addition to an update on the programme content and information on the types of projects we are looking for, this webinar focused on the partnership rules.

We organised a series of four pitch & network sessions - one for each priority - to allow project developers to present their ideas to their peers.
North Sea Conference 2020
Due to Covid-19, the North Sea Conference 2020 was postponed and eventually turned into a virtual event. The conference was all about the future: The North Sea Commission presented its 2030 strategy and the conference included workshops where delegates could discuss the future North Sea Region Programme.
State of Play webinar
On 10 September 2020, we hosted a webinar presenting the current state of play of programme development, including preliminary outcomes of the public stakeholder consultation. The webinar was fully booked and participants had the chance to ask questions about the process.
