Funding for nine projects from the Norden 0-30 programme

The third application round for Norden 0-30 is now closed. A total of 17 applications were made in this round for a total of EUR 438,238. The expert group decided to award funding of EUR 312,500 to nine projects, with individual grants ranging from EUR 10,000 to EUR 50,000.

More funding was awarded compared with the other two rounds this year. Changes made this year were applicable for the first time to this round. The changes involve new criteria for bilateral co-operation and an increase in the maximum amount of funding. New types of projects were able to apply for funding, with funding of up to EUR 50,000 awarded. As this round saw fewer applications, more projects were awarded the maximum amount of funding available.

Some examples of projects awarded funding:
