What’s NEXT in Interreg NEXT Black Sea Basin Programme? Launching for public consultation of the Application Pack for the 1st call for project proposals

UPDATE - 8 December 2022 

Thank you all for your engagement in the public consultations and for the valuable contributions which will entail the improvement of the Application Pack for the 1st call for project proposals.

We are aware that the novelties contained in the new EU legal framework for the 2021-2027 period, applicable to all Interreg programmes and reflected accordingly in our Programme documents, may be challenging both for you, as potential beneficiaries of the Interreg NEXT BSB Programme and for us, as management structures. For an efficient and timely implementation of the Programme and projects, it is important to find the best approaches on how to tackle these challenges in our joint activity.

The revised version of the Application pack will try to reflect both the needs of the Black Sea Basin community and the innovative approaches for a sound financial management of Programme and projects.

Please keep an eye on the website for news regarding the approval of the Programme and the launch of the 1st call for proposals.
