  • Assistance in preparing and submitting projects for EU structural funds, as well as to Estonian financing institutions

EDCBM’s role in SUBMARINER

EDCBM has an extensive partner network and contact database, as well as the analytical know-how to very efficiently collect and analyze information on the topic of sustainable marine uses and technologies in Estonia and offer effective dissemination activities to interested parties. Throughout the project, we also provide recommendations for national and/or regional authorities and supported programmes to encourage future development of the most sustainable marine uses and technologies.

Together with Tallinn University of Technology, EDCBM provided information from Estonia for the various BSR wide analyses and BSR networks. We also analysed the regulatory framework and socio-economic conditions for new uses in Estonia and provided recommendations to encourage their further development. Together with other project partners we organized workshops and promoted cooperation events in Estonia and the BSR.
