BlueActionBANOS: Turning Ideas into Action – Stories from Community Projects (Part 2)
Webinar, 18 February 2026 - 14:00 CET

In this webinar, we will continue to showcase community‑driven initiatives that spark positive change across the Baltic and North Sea basins.

While Part 1 primarily featured examples from the blue economy sectors, this session (Part 2) will highlight the diversity of actions that can be funded through BlueActionBANOS by presenting a set of projects with an emphasis on environmental stewardship.

What local challenges have communities successfully addressed? Which types of activities have proven impactful, scalable, and are deemed well‑suited to the goals of Mission Ocean?

We listen to practitioners from ongoing or concluded initiatives who will share their experiences, from early engagement to the practicalities of implementation. Hopefully, anyone considering their own community project will come away inspired to develop their full BlueActionBANOS proposal!

 

Preliminary Agenda:

  • 10.00 Welcome and introduction to BlueActionBANOS (BAB).
  • 10.10 Frequently Asked Questions relating to BAB funding.
  • 10.20 Inspirational stories from exemplary community projects. Speakers and projects TBA.
