[null,null,null,"Via Hanseatica Plus","Overall objective of the project and the expected change The objective of the project is enhanced development of tourism and tourism SMEs along the expanded Via Hanseatica (VH) route due to smart marketing of Via Hanseatica and strong network of Via Hanseatica entrepreneurs. The expected change the project will make to the current situation is expanded VH route in cooperation with VH entrepreneurs and tourism developers. VH route from St. Petersburg to Riga will be expanded with detours to Vyborg (RUS), Rakvere (EE), Viljandi (EE) and Pskov (RUS).  Common challenges, the need for CBC and planned approaches VH tourism route is a cross-border tourism route linking St. Petersburg and Riga. As VH is an international tourism route, its success depends on CBC between the tourism developers and SMEs along the route. Parties interested in developing VH are interdependent actors on different sides of the border, thus proper development of VH can only be carried out in CBC. This project will focus on 4 common cross-border challenges that require cross-border approach for addressing them properly.  1) There are attractive destinations near VH route in Russia and Estonia that are not yet incorporated into VH packages, although their key tourism attractions and sites match well the idea of VH. Expansion of the VH route requires support from cross-border community of VH stakeholders and the maximum usage of earlier experiences from similar actions. The current project will incorporate the following destinations into VH by extending the VH route and creating detours to Vyborg and Pskov in Russia, Rakvere and Viljandi in Estonia. 2) The cross-border network of VH entrepreneurs and stakeholders requires reinforcement to support further development of VH. CBC is essential for empowering the cross-border network of VH entrepreneurs. VH has to be strong, visible, functioning and supported by local tourism stakeholders along the whole route. Only national networks are not sufficient for supporting durability and development of VH. One of the main tools for reinforcing the network are joint and practical events for entrepreneurs from EE and RUS that will be planned and carried out in cross-border cooperation. Those include cross-border study trips combined with trainings and meetings with travel agents. The focus of the trainings will be on maximum practical value for the participants. For example, trainings on simple ways of promoting their businesses on web and social media, effective cross-marketing of sites, attractions and services along VH.  3) Insufficiency of target group focused marketing of VH route and packages. Target group focused marketing of the VH will be based on sites along the whole VH. Thus, cooperation between partners, associated partners, tourism developers and SMEs from EE, RUS and LV is a prerequisite for generating content and developing solutions for successful marketing. The project will devote a lot of attention to target group specific smart marketing of VH. The marketing efforts will focus on two visitor groups with the biggest potential for VH. a) Families with children. Primarily from St. Petersburg, Leningrad and Pskov oblast, Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania. b) (Groups of) cultural tourists arriving in St. Petersburg or Riga, who could travel St. Petersburg-Riga or Riga-St. Petersburg along VH. They are primarily from Germany. 4) Limited cross-marketing between VH sites and attractions, especially in cross-border context, is possible only via cross-border cooperation. That';s why its development can be carried out only as a CB effort. The set of marketing activities will also provide solutions for the VH enterprises for effective cross-marketing of each other and the trainings will reinforce the network of tourism SMEs and developers.  Main outputs and activities Main outputs and activities of the VH+ project are the following: VH+ routes to Vyborg, Pskov, Rakvere and Viljandi, including marking of the routes and involvement of new stakeholders in the VH network; Study trips for tourism entrepreneurs combined with practical trainings; Contact event for VH entrepreneurs and travel agencies; FAM tours: primarily for travel agencies (in case of culture tourists), journalists and bloggers for families in case of family tourists. Marketing solutions and activities for 2 most potential target groups of VH: families with children and cultural tourists.  New and original The main new elements of the project are: - creating and incorporating additional routes to the main VH route; - a very clear focus on target groups throughout all the marketing activities; - more intensive and practical training element during study trips for entrepreneurs.","2019-04-01","2021-06-30",422382.45,"Sihtasutus Tartumaa Turism","Foundation Tartu County Tourism",140861.55,"Y"]

A cluster of apartment buildings and single-family homes are located in the sparsely populated area. Different water and wastewater systems have been built at different times to ensure the living environment of such village centers. These systems are often outdated and many households do not have wastewater solutions. In order to improve and preserve the quality of the Lake Peipsi basin, it is important to ensure the existence and functioning of water and sewage systems in such compact settlements. In the village of Tammistu, there is approx. 800 m of sewage pipeline, which was built 40 years ago. There are about 500m of existing water pipelines. The water pipeline has been built from cast iron and steel pipes at different times. Pipelines are depreciated.\n\nThe general goal of the project is to ensure the good condition of the Lake Peipsi watershed ecosystem through the reconstruction of the old leaking sewage systems of the settlements. In addition to the improvement of the environmental condition, the living environment, welfare and resilience of the people in the region will also improve.\n\nAs a result of the project, a high-quality public water supply and sewerage connection will be built for 17 properties in the village of Tammistu. Since a large part of them are apartment buildings, the number of beneficiaries is approximately 110 people. In addition to investments in water systems, an important part of the project is to inform residents about environmentally sustainable water use and environmental protection in general. High-quality drinking water is an important resource in achieving resilience to climate change. In addition to the local residents, the residents of the entire Pieps basin will also benefit from the improved living environment as a result of the project.\n\nThe main activities of the project are the construction of the water and sewage systems of the village of Tammistu (a total of approx. 300 meters both) and the informing and training of the residents of the region (1 information day and information sharing in various media channels).","2023-06-19","2023-12-18",333000,"AS Emajõe Veevärk","Emajõe Waterworks Ldt",332000,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"T2Dprevention","Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a global health problem. Today, 415 million people live with diabetes worldwide. The problem of diabetes in Russia and Estonia is particularly acute and the increasing prevalence of T2D has become a major health challenge. It is known that T2D can seriously impair overall quality of life and may lead to a long list of complications, including heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. It can also result in lower life expectancy by 5-10 years. Moreover, diabetes imposes a large economic burden on the national healthcare. Healthcare expenditures on diabetes account for 11.6% of the total healthcare expenditure in the world. Additionally the largest economic burden caused by diabetes is the monetary value associated with disability and loss of life as a result of the disease itself and its related complications, including heart, kidney, eye and foot disease. Early identification of individuals at high T2D risk enables delay or prevention of T2D onset through effective lifestyle and/or pharmacological interventions, and has been shown to reduce costs of healthcare. Our understanding of T2D pathobiology has improved dramatically and genetic high-resolution technologies allowed the identification of genetic markers that increase the risk of T2D in different populations. Recent studies have identified more than 80 susceptibility genetic markers that may serve as potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of T2D. Biomarkers may help to determine individual risk and to predict the disease complications. To date, Russia is very backward in research of genetics of T2D and no genome-wide data of factors, predisposing to T2D for Russian population is available at present. Moreover, despite the large number of studies of diabetes in the world, no specific diabetes risk panels of genetic markers or effective prevention approaches using genetic markers that could be used in clinical practice for the prediction of T2D have yet been proposed in Estonia and Russia. Additional problem is the rather limited knowledge of endocrinologists in Estonia and Russia on genetic risk factors of T2D and the inability to use it in diagnosis and prevention of disease. The overall objective of this project is to improve the quality of diagnosis and prevention of T2D by developing of effective T2D prediction measures within the framework of partnership between Estonia and Russia (including elaborating of approaches for T2D risk identification, implementation of these approaches in the clinical practice, education). More specifically the project will address the following specific objectives: 1) To carry out research for identifying the genetic risk markers of T2D specific to the Russian population; 2) To develop a polygenic risk score model of T2D and genetic testing panel of T2D specific to the Russian population 3) To raise awareness on involvement of genetic factors of T2D and the possibility of using this knowledge in clinical practice for diagnosis and prevention of T2D in Russia and Estonia The project will contribute to make an exchange of experience and knowledge about T2D and to establish an effective cooperation between two countries. This project is aimed to carry out a deep scientific research using the potential of the major Universities of Estonia and Russia and to elaborate the reliable methods for medical clinics.  Moreover the project will ensure improving quality of knowledge about genetic risk markers of disease for clinicians through training seminars, lectures and publishing methodological literature.","2019-05-01","2022-10-31",155258.13,"Федеральное государственное бюджетное образовательное учреждение высшего образования \"Санкт-Петербургский государственный университет\"","Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education “Saint-Petersburg State University”",37815.44,"Y"]

Currently it is a problem that the fire hydrants (18 pc.) installed on the public water supply pipeline for fire fighting in Mustvee cannot be used, because the existing pump station at the Jõe st. is not in accordance with standards.\n\nb) In addition we plan to install public drinking water taps which would be of help during heat wave especially to vulnerable groups, and also decrease possible plastic pollution.\nThe installed public drinking water taps in Mustvee port have benefit to local and tourists. There are several town festivals which might bring in one day several thousands of people. Tap water is 10-90 times more resource-efficient than bottled water, depending on the cost of transportation. \n\nc) Another problem we address is Mustvee harbour  boat repair area, where oils spills can occur and  has potential risk to lake water pollution (especially during heavy rains). Here - oil trap system and rainwater infiltration area with planted trees and bushes would ease the problem.\nd) We also will work for increased awareness on water saving in households and gardening (articles in local newspaper, public info seminar for garden owners,  tree planting public event and Water quiz targeted to young people), which would have impact in wider level and bring changes in peoples behavior in long run. \n\nProject activities are directly linked to Mustvee municipality development plan 2018-2030 (https://mustveevald.kovtp.ee/documents/), Jõgeva county energy and climate Plan and other relevant stratgey documents. The neccessary calculations are done, technical documentation is available, info is ready to start tenders as soon as possible; just some changes are needed in pre-projects.\nAt least 910 households, several thousands of tourists in harbour area will directly benefit from the project, in addition around fifty people will be involved in awareness activities directly. Throug the communication activities (social media, articles, interviews, posters) - at least 2000 people are informed on project topics.\n\nThe project is led by Mustvee Haldus/Communal management OÜ with partnership of NGO Peipsi Center for Transboundary Cooperation.\n\nMustvee WaterMan has very strong long term sustainability focus.\nThe water problems in Mustvee would be addressed through:\n\n\n1. improved infrastructure (reconstructed water pump, rain water collection areas, oil spills collection, drinking water stations, container toilet) which will remain in place also after the termination of the project and thus household water quality will be in good level for several years to come. The reconstruction of a water pump station is sustainable in terms of financial sustainability because it helps achieve energy savings by reducing the energy consumption of the pump station and its operational costs. Increasing the power and efficiency of the pump reduces the overload on the pump station and extends the pump&#39;s lifespan. A reconstructed pump helps prevent unexpected failures and repair costs. The infrastructure being built in Mustvee harbor also helps avoid potential fines and other environmental-related costs associated with environmental pollution.\n\n\n2. increased knowledge how to save water in households/gardening and general water (management) awareness, which will bring changes in peoples water-use and water saving behavior in a long run.","2023-06-19","2023-12-31",296473.2,"Mustvee Haldus OÜ","Mustvee Communal management",277298,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"MilHer","The call is aimed at supporting the social-economic development of the eligible regions, focusing among other issues on supporting cultural tourism, developing tourism objects and routes and promoting the results. Estonia as a whole - and Ida-Virumaa specifically - is remarkably rich in military heritage concerning the 20th century. The sites depicting the Cold War era are often globally unique, but also those marking WW II are of remarkable significance. These events, together with how they are their remembered, interpreted and exhibited are among the highlights in national and internationa news about Estonia. Our role is to use the manifold past of the region as an asset and through providing an honest, historically competent and fact-based approach to tourists (both from Estonia and abroad) a comprehensive and intersting overview of the era and the role Ida-Virumaa played therein. This is the main challenge the project addresses. Additionally, each tourist visiting the region is economically beneficial: not only for the museum or site he visits, but also for the benefit for other enterprises. And the longer the tourist stays, the more he spends - thus the trick is to prolong the stay in the region. Summing it up, the challenges are:to develop an attractive tourist site depicting the events of WW II in Ida-Virumaa and Northern Estonia;to prolong the stay of tourists in the region. Thus the overall objective of the project is improved socioeconomic competitiveness of  Ida-Virumaa and Harjumaa achieved through an improved WW II military heritage focused tourism product and enhanced understanding of WW II and Estonian military past that helps the visitors avoid falling victim to false propaganda. The present tourism product focusing on WW II at both partner museums is insufficiently covered, the information is presented scantily, the two museums are not sufficiently linked together as a joint tourism route (product) and also marketed independently. The change brought along by the project is linking the two ends (Vaivara and Viimsi) together by developing the exhibitions dedicated to the common era both museums address (WW II), elaborating interactive tourism route between the two locations and to work out a tourism brochure, giving an ample overview of the events in WW II in Ida-Virumaa, Harjumaa, in-between and in Estonia in general. \n\nThe main ouputs will be:\nA new, moveable exhibition \"People and fates\" developed in the Vaivara Sinimägede Museum (VSS)  focusing on people from the Vaivara area and their fate during the WW II. Information kiosks in VSS, giving a more detailed and interactive overview of the events of WWII presented through the stories of the airplane IL-2 and tank T-34.Four information stands (located at the museum, Grenaderimägi, Vaivara cemetery and Narva-Jõesuu harbour) depicting and describing the events of WW II in the region and in the specific locationTransportation of the T-34 tank to the technical exhibition hall in VSS and improving the latter to exhibit the tank in the most attractive wayNew and improved exhibition in Estonian War Museum (ESM) covering WW IIAn outdoor exhibition at the premises of ESM, focusing on WW IIImproved exhibition in ESM heavy artillery hangar on the tank T-34.An interactive tourism route connecting Vaivara and Viimsi developed. Tourism brochure on WW II along the tourism route (and in general in Estonia) developedThe main beneficiaries are:\ntourists visiting the region, both from Estonia and abroad who have \"more to see and visit\" and thus prolong their staylocal inhabitants (including youngsters), who will have a honest, historically competent and fact-based approach to WW IIlocal entrepreneurs (and local governments) on the routr from Vaivara to Viimsi who will benfit from the increased number of touristsThe main activities foreseen are:\ndeveloping exhibitions \"People and fates\" and of T-34 in VSSdeveloping exhibitions of WW II in ESM (inclduing outdoor exhibition, exhibition in heavy artillery hangar)improving access to information about WW II in VSS and ESM (information kiosks and stands in VSS, exhibition in heavy artillery hangar in ESM)developing an interactive tourism route connecting Vaivara and Viimsipublishing a tourism brochure on WW II in Estonian, English and Russianproject management and communication activities","2023-07-01","2023-12-31",222376.32,"Eesti sõjamuuseum - kindral Laidoneri muuseum","Estonian War Museum - General Laidoner Museum",68018.27,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"LOCAL FIRE","Seasonal fires in forests and bogs, dried grass burning in the Programme and project area are most defective emergencies during spring and summer as most of them are hard to reach and territories are quite big. High attendance of woods leads to numerous unregulated ignitions. Recreational zones and picturesque places located in project territory are factor of high danger. During spring and summer period the number of inhabitants and guests of the border territory increases to 4 times. Traditional historical type of dense wooden housing system in settlements and remote farms is a factor of increased fire danger. There are already examples of disconnections which result the huge fires and damage to nature and inhabitants. The institution of the volunteer rescue services have to be improved as the state fire service can´t be effective due to the long distances not only in high fire season. In cold winter risks of ignitions in old wooden houses with bad electric wiring are very high. The state services located in a long distance of in mainland, so volunteer rescue services (VRS) have to have good skills and equipment to localize and implement fire fighting activities before it comes out of the control. After administrative reforms in EE and RU transforming and improvement of common coordination of local rescue services (both the state and volunteer) are extremely needed. Preventive measures are always cheaper and more effective on local level. Overall Project objective is to improve living and leisure safety in RU-EE border area through complex of shared actions in risk management for forest and land fire protection. On administrative level project partners will improve mechanisms of local action to prevent or localize forest and land fires and protect inhabitants and territory from fires. Project foresees the complex of particular improvements of small municipal infrastructure for VRS. For a solution of problem of land and forest fires and dried grass burning it is planned to realize a complex of local preventive actions on both sides of border: - creation of the network from local voluntary fire-fighter teams for cooperation in Russia and Estonia; - creation the models for fire-fighting methods in different types or scenario (seasonal (hot summer and cold winter, woods, fields, settlements, islands etc.), updating the local thematic municipal programmes, improvement of local regulations and administrative acts (an example of Estonian party) regarding the voluntary fire teams, etc. to be used within the project territory and outside of it as a templates of showcases; - reduction of number of forestry connecting roads with main routes in timber-land as a good method for the control of the forests and reaction in emergency situations, the equipment of restrictions of road exits in woods, excavation or improvement of fire suppression ponds, plowing round settlements with bad ignition statistics, improvement of infrastructure for the firefighting facilities on the shore to provide operative reaction and localization of ignitions on the Narva river islands covered with woods and hard-to-reach remote territories and woods in Kirde-Eesti; - purchase of equipment for suppression and localization of the fires and ignitions, the modernization of mobile warning systems; creation of staff of public fire inspectors; - realization of a complex of public actions for prevention of the emergency situations and self-ignitions (the organization of information work with the population (stands, instructions in mass media, etc.) As a result of the project the number of uncontrolled huge forest and land fires will be decreased as well as damage to the inhabitants and nature. The measures to prevent or to localize the seasonal fires in municipalities will be improved and the particular municipal administrative instruments will be updated. The concrete “road maps” for different emergency situations will be elaborated, the public institutions as volunteer rescue teams and public fire inspectors will be integrated in to the improved governance practices in this sector in both countries. Scope of investment activities will be tested and performed during the project in both countries to improve the statistics of forest and land fires in the programme area. About 300 thousand of inhabitants will directly benefiting the project results in forest fire protection measures and additional 200-250 thousand of people from neighbouring municipalities and “summer inhabitants” from other parts of Estonia, Saint Petersburg and Leningrad region will also spent their vocational time in more fire safe territory.

The project partners have assessed the situation from this approach and identified and as the two handicraft sector small-scale agricultural production key fields to be developed.\nThe project main overall objective is increasing SME development and entrepreneurship by fostering cross-border business contacts and the development of services and products.\nThe expected change brought along consists of improving the skills and knowledge of SMEs active in handicraft and small-scale agricultural production in selected sectors (timberwork and carpentry, glass art and metal works, smithery, pottery, bashing, small-scale agricultural) in the fields of production and product development), artistic design, creative and cultural industries, business management, marketing skills and network building and sustaining through organising joint relevant master-classes on both sides of the border and equipping the premises of master classes with necessary equipment. This is coupled with enhancing the possibilities for the SMEs to market and sell their products, with new marketing events / fairs infrastructure developed in project partner local authorities.\nThe main outputs of the project are relevant investments into the infrastructure and conducting master-classes in selected areas for the SMEs in the region. The direct beneficiaries will be handicraft and small-scale agricultural focused SMEs in the region and project partner local authorities, the indirect beneficiaries will be the whole population in the region that will benefit from the invigorated socioeconomic environment and the enhanced possibilities vested therein.\nThe main activities contributing to achieving the project and programme objectives, results and indicators include:\nDeveloping the detailed conception of master-classesConducting joint master classes for SMEs active in the handicraft sector to improve their specific skills and knowledge and in artistic design, management and marketing skills.  In total 135 participants  (85 RUS, 50 EST)Conducting joint master classes for SMEs active in agricultural producation to improve their skills and knowledge in management and marketing skills. In total 40 participants  (36 EST, 4 RUS)Organising marketing events (e.g. fairs) in order to develop of new marketing channels  for the target groups.  In total 350 participants (158 EST, 192 RUS)Modernising master class and marketing facilities.\nThe proposed approach and innovation is based on a model that on one hand invigorates the local economy through supporting the production of traditional handicraft and agriculatural products (tastes) and on the other hand uses the local authorities as enablers and promoters of such activities.\nCross-border approach is needed, as the regions have historically had close cooperation, challenging similar problems and setting common goals. Similar resources have enabled to develop the same economic sectors in the past and the current economic growth with sharing similar business environment offers good opportunities for cross-border interaction and business development for people and communities- craftsmen and farmers, SME’s, self employed people etc. Cross-border cooperation is more effective and efficient for solving the challenges described above than acting on a local or national level.","2020-09-02","2023-08-31",43876.27,"Kohtla-Järve Linnavalitsus","Kohtla-Järve Town Government",11124.73,"Y"]

Such testing is required by REACH legislation in EU before potential commercialization for all new materials. Testing in a relatively early phase of development enables the identification of potentially hazardous compounds directly, hence avoiding the unnecessary cost of further developing. Both the industrial and academic sector, working with bioderived polymers, would benefit from this study.\n\n2) Development of filter materials. \nIn this core activity, we carry out further development and tests of polymers developed in BioStyrene project ER30 as electropun filtering materials. Such development is needed to extend the potential of these materials. \nOften the same polymers could be used for different application, however, in ER30 project we were able to evaluate our materials only in paint industry. Thus, in this study we will investigate the applicability of the similar polymers as sustainable and bio-based filtering materials prepared via electrospinning. Electrospinning is a technology with high potential for preparing  polymeric filtering materials for both liquids and solids. For example, the electrospun media is especially efficient for removal of small particles in sub-micron scale, as fine dust, bacteria, viruses, and even microplastics. In Estonia, there are SME-s who are already applying (e.g., Esfil Tehno, https://www.esfiltehno.ee/en/) or are interested in application of electrospinning technology for their production. The report will be introduced to the companies encouraging them to apply the new bioderived polymers in their production as electrospun filtering materials. \n\n3) Development of second generation plastics from lignin.\nIn this core activity, we develop the &#39;second generation plastics&#39;, and this development builds directly on the knowledge obtained during the BioStyrene (ER30) project. Compared to technology and materias developed in ER30, these second generation plastics are structurally novel and more efficient to prepare. Due to ease of preparation, they have potential to attract the attention of various SME-s, especially in the area of coating materials.\n\nBoth industrial and academic sector will benefit from this study.

There have been no cross-border estimates done for the stock of European eel in the whole Narva RBD, as this fish species is not studied and monitored based on a similar methodology in Estonia and Russia. Knowing the exact escapement of silver eels from Narva RBD is essential for judgement of the species’ welfare and planning further eel management actions, as the whole eel stock of Narva RBD is based on restocking. Practices for collecting and sharing of data about European eel on Russian and Estonian side are not harmonised. In addition, a stock assessment about eel in the Russian waterbodies of Narva RBD till today is basically non-existent. European eel is an important fish species for both commercial and recreational fishery in Narva RBD. Without cross-border stock assessment it is impossible to plan and implement the stock management of European eel in Narva RBD. Stock assessment of European eel in the whole Narva RBD would be a valuable contribution to the European-wide stock assessment of European eel. Project approaches these challenges by using novel ways to estimate the abundance of eel on the waterbodies on both sides of the border. It will be for the first time that the stock of assessment of European eel is simultaneously carried out in a river basin district shared by Russia and Estonia using the same methodology. A novel method of using an enclosure fyke net system with 1 ha surface area will be applied on all of the waterbodies selected on both sides of the border. The enclosure fyke net system will be the main tool of the project in the estimation of eel abundance. The novel enclosure fyke net methodology will be used on the fieldworks during the three-year project period. Right now an existing practice of eel specialized methodology and research development are absent on the Russian side of Narva RBD. Russian scientists will adopt the same novel methodology on their waterbodies in cooperation with Estonians. Usage of the same methodology and data collection technique by both Russian and Estonian researchers, makes a joint stock assessment possible. Using the knowledge obtained during the project, a better cross-border management of the eel stock will be possible in future. Knowing the relative stock abundance and origin of eels inhabiting Russian and Estonian side of Narva RBD, a more accurate management of the eel stock in the transboundary Narva RBD as well as more precise measurement of the restocking efficiency is possible. If the new knowledge about restocking efficiency and project results approve and require, the project could result in an eel restocking programme for the Narva River and Lake Peipsi that would add a clear value to the local fishing sector. Assessment of the eel stock in the whole Narva RBD would be impossible without cooperation between Russian and Estonian side. Because Narva RBD is a transboundary water system, it can be researched only together with Estonian and Russian researchers, because waterbodies on the Russian side of the RBD are out of reach for Estonian researchers and vice versa. This project helps to fill the knowledge gap of eel distribution and stocking-densities in the north-eastern part of Europe, most importantly in Narva RBD, which is shared between the Republic of Estonia and the Russian Federation. The data on silver eel escapement as well as yellow eel production in the Russian waterbodies of Narva RBD is necessary for a precise and reliable stock assessment for the whole region.

[null,null,null,"SUFISH","One of the key components of Lake Peipsi&#39;s biodiversity is definitely the species richness of its fish population. The most important management decisions of the fish stocks in the lake are based on experimental trawling regularly carried out since 1994 by the Estonian Marine Institute. The methodology has been developed in cooperation with the colleagues from Russian Federation to monitor the main commercial species of the lake, which are predominatly demersal (i.e. bottom-dwelling). However, in recent decades, due to the high fluctuations of some pelagic species (especially vendace, a highly valued food fish) there have been concerns that the current monitoring methodology is not sufficient and optimal to maintain a good level of pelagic populations and thus also general biodiversity in the lake. Several possible improvements in the monitoring program have been proposed (e.g. monitoring using pelagic trawls, sonars, monitoring during night-time), but due to limited funding and no clear agreement with the Russian colleagues, the improvements have been postponed. The objective of the current project is to test these improvements without the participation of Russian colleagues in order to come up with an improved biodiversity assessment methodology, that could be transferred to the whole lake in the future. More accurate and diverse monitoring of the fish resources of this lake system would result in higher quality of the management decisions and in conclusion reduce the unnecessary fluctuations in the populations, which could otherwise lead to the loss of biodiversity. A well-managed and diverse structure of the biological resources in lake Peipsi is highly important to the fisheries and tourism sector around the lake, as well as contributes to the food security of the communities. The main activities under the proposed short-timed project will be the introduction of the monitoring program of pelagic communities using scientific pelagic trawl. Such a monitoring program needs extensive experiments and tests before it can be implemented as a routine part in the future fish stock assessment. For that objective we will import the methodology from Swedish and Finnish big lakes (size comparable to Lake Peipsi) with preliminary know-how and will adapt the solutions to the shallow and more diverse lake Peipsi conditions.","2023-06-01","2023-11-30",187032.79,"Tartu Ülikool","University of Tartu",187032.79,"Y"]

In addition, during the peak of storm loads, sewage collectors are overflowed,    untreated waste water gets into the Velikaya River and further into Lake Peipsi. Waste accumulated in the sewage collectors also leads to blockages of sewage pipes and environmental pollution by untreated wastewater. As the enterprise   operating with the sewerage system (Municipal Enterprise of the Pskov city “Gorvodokanal) has no modern system for monitoring and managing the sewage system, recording and forecasting contingencies, planning and  cleaning sewage networks, the number of accidents on networks resulting in disposal  of untreated wastewater into Lake Peipsi  has significantly increased. In recent years the number of accidents which cause sewage overflows has increased by 3 times in 2016 in comparison with 2012. As a result untreated sewage gets into the Velikaya River and further into Lake Peipsi that leads to the worsening of ecological situation in the transboundary basin. Similar situations occur on the Estonian shores of the lake, that is why the problems concerning the  operation of sewage networks and  risk management on pollution of  Lake Peipsi are transboundary and should be resolved through joint efforts and actions.

The project will establish the infrastructure for voluntary rescue services in Rõuge. The rescue depot as a crises headquarters and operation base will provide quicker response to rescue events in rural and border areas. The improved capacities will activate local communities and volunteering. This will foster shared actions in risk management and a readiness to cope with environmental disasters in the Võru county, Southern Estonia.\nCommon challenge: Rapid climate change increases the risk of weather hazards, environmental disasters and other cascade emergency events which require professional, efficient and fast-enough mitigation actions and rescue services. Weather hazards, storms, extreme temperatures, heavy rain and floodings, snowstorms, forest fires etc can cause societal, economic and ecological disruption. Most forest fires are caused by human activities which exemplifies the importance of awareness and responsible behaviour. Climate change projections indicate that forest fire risk will increase during the coming decades and the fire season will lengthen in both spring and autumn.\nNational, regional and local authorities, different sectors should act together with local communities to elaborate emergency preparedness and develop relevant rescue services. The role of local communities and volunteering becomes highly important in rural depopulating areas.  The rescue capacities in the border region as an integral part of the resilience building contribute to the national security and keep local communities safe. \nApproach: Mitigating environmental and climate risks in remote rural areas in Southern Estonia can be achieved by implementing prevention measures and risk assessment, but also the investment in rescue depot enabling to achieve the response efficiency and quality in rescue services, safety surveillance and counselling. In total, it improves emergency preparedness using direct community involvement and volunteering, sharing tasks and responsibilities. The risk management and mitigation will be improved empowering the local agency.  Simultaneously it enlivens, activates and strengthens local rural communities. Local communities learn from the experience received from project actions and outputs. The project as a model case encourages public authorities in the programme area to enhance volunteering and develop community-based public services which in longer term keep and bring high-quality services to the rural areas. The key is a joint and shared risk mitigation instead of fragmented single schemes. Target groups are local communities, public specialised authorities and municipal local authorities.\nObjective: Main project objective is fostering shared actions in risk management and a readiness to cope with environmental disasters and climate change risks in remote rural areas by developing the national rescue network and local rescue depot using the contribution of volunteers and shared community action.\nThe objective will be achieved through organizing prevention and awareness raising actions and investing in local depot as crises headquarter and operation base.\nResults and activities: 1) Increased awareness and preparedness of public authorities, institutions and general public about environmental disasters, climate risks, natural hazards and other related and cascade risks the society and rural communities in the border areas can be exposed. The contemporary risk mitigation approaches, techniques and recommendations are introduced to target groups and local communities during workshops, visits and the resilience conference. The risk awareness will be substantially improved at 3 workshops and the resilience conference designated to the borderland.\n2) Investing in the Rõuge rescue depot (835 m2) as the designated infrastructure, local crises headquarters and operations base with the special machinery and equipment as a practical showcase in Southern Estonia. The depot will enhance a common rescue network in reality in remote border areas where the environmental disasters can become more frequent due to climate change, natural wildfires and other cross-border risks. 3) Increased capacity of rescue network and services to mitigate the environmental risks and forest fires in adapting to the climate change, weather and natural hazards.\nThe bottom line is the rescue capacities in the region as an integral part of the resilience building contribute to the national security and keep local communities safe.

The European Green Deal has limited the possibilities for the development of the oil shale industry in Ida-Viru. Just Transition requires industrial diversification and attraction of new external industrial investments to the border region.\n\nThe viability of the Transit sector in Ida-Viru is at risk due to the closure of the border with the Russian Federation. First, the flow of goods and tourists decreased significantly due to the sanctions, and now it has been announced that the Russian Federation will completely close the auto, truck and bus traffic between Estonia and the Russian Federation through the Narva-Ivangorod border crossing point.\n\nThe closure of borders, sanctions in connection with the war in Ukraine, the cessation of the issuance of Estonian visas to citizens of the Russian Federation had a negative impact on the Tourism sector in Ida-Viru, where tourists from the Russian Federation traditionally used to have a large percentage. The tourism sector has also been hit hardly by rising energy prices and inflation. Hotels, SPAs and food service businesses struggle to survive and some are forced to reduce staff.\n\nThe overall objective of the project is improving the business environment in the border region of Ida-Viru (Narva, Narva-Jõesuu, Sillamäe) as well as increasing the investment attractiveness, improving logistics capabilities and diversifying regional industry by creating conditions for further development of an industrial and logistics complex Olgina Industrial Park / Aerodrome.\n\nThe main project results are:Gained knowledge and experience how to sustainable develop of industrial parks near aerodromes from similar projects implementing in Southeastern Finland;Tight mutually benefit cooperation started between Estonian and Finish companies operated regional aerodromes in Southeast Finland in the framework of the preparation of common projects using combined recources, assets and experience and aimed to organizing air communication between Southeastern Finland and Ida-Viru;Increased investors trust and confidence in the border region of Ida-Viru (Narva, Narva-Jõesuu, Sillamäe), as to a place where it is reasonable and profitable to invest in projects to create new production, logistics and tourism companies;Documentation required to attract funding for the construction of the Olgina Industrial Park / Aerodrome elaborated.The main outputs which will be produced in the frame of the project are:\nOlgina Industrial Park/ Aerodrome business model;Olgina Industrial Park/ Airfield Feasibility Study;Digital presentation with 3D visualization and video for the future promotion of the complex Olgina industrial park / Aerodrome;Final seminar to present to the local SMEs, local authorities and public the results of the project and plans for the further development of the Olgina Industrial Park / Airfield.The main beneficiaries of the project outputs are the local inhabitance of the Ida-Viru border region (Narva, Sillamäe, Nara-Jõesuu), local SMEs, large industrial enterprises located in the region and local authorities.\n\nThe main activities which are planned in the project are:\nPreparation and implementation of the best practices tour to Finland, to exchange of experience and to establish of business contacts;Elaboration of the business model and Feasibility Study of the Olgina Industrial Park / Aerodrome;Preparation and holding of at least 4 meetings of the Project Stakeholders Committee in order to agree and approve the business model and Feasibility Study;Preparation and organization of the final seminar for at least 50 participants to disseminate the results of the project; Elaboration, production and dissemination of the digital presentation of the Olgina industrial park / Aerodrome.Within the framework of this project, only a business model and feasibility study of the Olgina Industrial Park / Aerodrome will be elaborated.

The overall objective is to improve business and living environment by increasing the competitiveness of the cross-border region through continuing development of the Narva-Ivangorod trans-border castles ensemble as a single cultural and tourist product. By restoring historical heritage and making it more accessible for general public project activities will result in more favourable conditions for local and regional SMEs, who will benefit from the increased flow of tourists to the region. To successfully achieve the goal of improving business and living environment of the region a cross-border approach is needed because this is the only way to try avoid the uneven development patterns, which result in diminishing of the attractiveness of the whole Kirde-Eesti and Saint-Petersburg region. Successful implementation of previous and current projects builds on the existing cooperation and spills out to the public and other spheres helping in improving the overall relations between regional and state actors. Thus cross-border approach is a necessary requirement for the general success of the project and imperative in keeping and improving inter-regional and inter-state relations overall. The main outputs of the project are: - Reconstruction of the western yard, improvement of its logistics, conservation and restoration of yard';s outer walls. - Restoration of Kristervall bastion and creation of Italian-style bastions theme exhibition in it. - Increase in cooperation between project partners and existent operators, finding new service providers - Restoration and opening of the Big Powder Granary to visitors - Spreading knowledge acquired during the project activities to general public and specialists The main beneficiaries from those outputs are first and foremost residents and SMEs of the cross-border region. As a result of the project 2 historically important sites are restored and at least 7 SMEs directly benefit from the project activities through getting an opportunity to establish closer cooperation with museums, being service providers or getting new knowledge and using it in improving their services. The main activities include reconstructing western yard, improving logistics, making it more accessible for people with disabilities, restoring Kristervall bastion and western yard';s outer walls, creating a permanent exhibition on Italian-style bastions in Kristervall. On the territory of Ivangorod museum restoration of Big Powder Granary will be taking place when restoration works are finished a new permanent exhibition, as well as a cultural and educational centre, will be open. As a result, current operators will increase cooperation with SA NM and Museum Agency will find new service providers for new services, such as souvenir shop and tourism centre, that will be available in the Big Powder Granary. For general public and specialists a final conference will be held and a compendium of articles published for free download. Although mentioned activities seem to be quite traditional, at the same time the project will bring in something new, that previous or similar cross-border infrastructure projects did not focus on. In parallel with investment activities project focuses on research and educational component. The main goal of this component is to find out more about Narva and Ivangorod fortifications and thus make their history, that still has many blank spaces, a little bit more known. Going hand in hand with the investment activities increase in better knowledge of the local history will hopefully help in reinforcing the identity of local residents and giving a new impulse for tourists to come to the region.  The challenge for the project partners is to communicate this information in such a way, that it does not get lost in other information flows or be too specific or difficult to understand. To sum the idea, the project plans for the future by looking back in history.","2019-09-02","2023-12-31",2067728.92,"SA Narva Muuseum","Foundation Narva Museum",1957069.38,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"InSociety","The overall objective of the project is to increase the visibility of the results of the \"Ergonomics\" project of the Mustvee Health Center through the wider implementation of the project&#39;s best practices, or \"Inclusion Days\".\n\nThe outputs of the project are:\nExpanded the implementation of \"Inclusion Days\" practices;\nCreated supportive networks to implement inclusion practices in everyday life;\nConducted basic health-promoting physical activity trainings for people with special needs and for wider public;\n\nOne of the most important practices that was realized within the \"ERgonomics\" project is organizing of the Inclusion Days, which allowed the participants to understand the special needs of people in their everyday life. The participants of the Inclusion Days said that before participating in the Inclusion Days, they had neither the need nor the opportunity to understand the concerns of people with disabilities. This kind of experience is crucial for the cultivation of a tolerant society and for the successful coping of disabled people with the activities of everyday life.\n\nIt is not enough that we think about disabled people once a year. If people with disabilities are not in our minds when we are planning services, they are not included or protected. Equal access to services, systems, physical environment, etc. must be ensured for disabled people. It is very important that all members of society understand the needs of disabled people in practicing a healthy lifestyle and maintaining an active social life.\n\nThe experiences of the \"Ergonomics\" project show different levels of people&#39;s attitude towards people with special needs. The vast majority of the participants of the inclusion days have not previously come into contact with disabled people and their daily activities or have simply not been aware of these experiences, but during the inclusion process, it was considered important to strive for the well-being of people with special needs, to find a place for them in the community and to overcome prejudices. This means that the readiness of the community to notice people with special needs and the creation of a network supporting people with disabilities is very important.\n\nThe activities of this project are also built on the basis of such principles that emerged within the framework of the \"ERgonomics\" project and the practice of \"Inclusion Days\", which include:\n\n3 \"Inclusion Days\", i.e. 1 day at each project partner. During the Inclusion Days, the best practices for the comprehensive inclusion of disabled people in social life will be presented within the framework of the \"ERgonomics\" project, and the results of the \"ERgonomics\" project will be presented and analyzed with the aim of increasing the visibility of the results and expanding the impact of this project on all partners and on general public.\n\n3 sets of ergonomic training equipment will be acquired for the development of physical abilities. In order that the involvement of the society does not take place only within the framework of the \"Days of Inclusion\", separate sets of ergonomic training equipment are purchased for each partner. Relaxation and rest areas (benches and safety swings with a universal design) will also be added to the areas. In the rest corners, you can rest as well as spend time with others, communicate and socialize.   With the help of ergonomic training equipment sets, it is possible to create an environment where there are daily opportunities for social integration of disabled people and  development of an inclusive society. \n\nAs part of  \"Days of Inclusion\", 3 meetings with a coach-physiotherapist are also held (1 day at each partner), under whose professional leadership communities and especially people with special needs can familiarize themselves with exercise equipment and basic health-promoting physical activity recommendations.\n\nAlthough accessibility and universal design are necessary primarily for people with disabilities, its impact is much broader: it makes life easier for everyone, regardless of age or ability. Therefore, the beneficiaries of the project implementation are all user groups, women, children, disabled people, elderly. The benefits of disabled and elderly people are active involvement in society services with the help of ergonomic exercise equipment. Ergonomic exercise equipment helps the elderly and disabled people to be active members of society and to know appropriate physical activity and the basics of ergonomics in everyday life. The benefit of the other user groups is that when they come into contact with people with special needs on a daily basis, they learn to be more tolerant, and as a result, these people develop into an inclusive society where everyone has equal or equal participation opportunities, regardless of whether they are young or old, disabled or not.","2023-05-04","2023-11-03",110000,"SA Mustvee Tervis","TE Mustvee Health Center",36000,"Y"]

Ida-Viru tourism sector and its businesses have been very successful on the Russian market - only Tallinn and Harju County had more tourists from Russia (300 000 bed nights). Ida-Viru County held the 2nd position. Tartu County as the 3rd had already significantly less nights (25 000 per annum in 2019).\n\nDue to the war and COVID, the market has declined drastically: by 7% during January-October 2022 and by 1,5% in November 2022 (the latest data, Russias share in bed nights). The Russian market will be lost for Estonia for years. The number of tourists has significantly decreased due to the loss of the Russian market. Ca 15-30% of the Ida-Viru tourism businesses&#39; clients were from Russia. This indicates the problem the sector is now facing - how to replace such a loss?\n\nThe markets that could help to recover this loss and need to be grown are Finland, Latvia and Estonia. For that, actions need to be taken. The biggest challenge is to attract the Finnish tourists - Ida-Viru region is barely known in Finland and the local tourism sector is not used to work towards the western world. Latvians come and vist Ida-Viru in little numbers, which is the result of no marketing so far. Luckily, Ida-Virumaa has become quite popular for Estonians, but this change is based on massive joint marketing and product development effort, which will not last without the support yet.\n\n Project main overall objective is to strengthen the tourism sector in Ida-Viru County after the collapse of its main inbound market Russia. It will be done by raising the interest on the Finnish, Latvian and Estonian markets to offer the replacement. This means developing attractive products and grow visibility in these new and yet unknown markets. The strategic goal of Ida-Viru County is to become no 1 tourism destination next to Tallinn and double the tourist amount (in comparison to year 2019). This can not be done without going to the new western markets.\n\nTo reach the goal, the project project will:Create attractive tourism offers (23 altogether) for the Finns, Latvians and Estonians. The new tourism offers will be: 3 joint thematic routes for Finnish tourists and 20 food and adventure special offers for Finns (6), Latvians (4), Estonians (10). This will be done by joint product development.Increase visibility on the Finnish, Latvian and Estonian markets. This will be done by carrying out 4 campaigns (1 in Finland, 1 in Latvia and 2 in Estonia), creating regular content into the marketing channels (newletters, Facebook and Instagram posts etc.), collecting additional marketing contacts and upgrading the main webpage www.idaviru.ee. The idea is to reach 24 000 webpage visits and 1,86 Mio Facebook reach.The anticipated result of the project is a good basis for the Ida-Viru toursm sector to recover from the late loss of the big Russian market. The project creates concrete special offers to attract the tourists from the new markets as well as raise the overall awareness of the region as an interesting destination.","2023-07-01","2023-12-31",252790,"Ida-Viru Ettevõtluskeskus SA","Ida-Viru Enterprise Center",252790,"Y"]

In both countries there are many different competitions and activities in the area of orienteering. Unfortunately there is very little cooperation between orienteering clubs of two countries and very few orienteers are participating in competitions and training camps across the border. There is a lot to learn from each other – how to organise and improve training camps and competitions for orienteers, how to create new and high quality orienteering maps, etc.   \nOne of the project aims is to establish a tradition of joint orienteering competitions in Russia and in Estonia. The precondition for creating such cooperation is presence of a close contact between orienteers of two countries. At the moment this bond is very weak. Our project helps to establish new contacts between active people from two countries’ during the joint training camps and joint competitions. Also in training days there will be organized a joint teaching team, which consists of two countries’ trainers.\nAnother problem in orienteering area is shortage of new orienteering maps. Nowadays the precondition for creating quality o-maps is the digitally scanned ground material (airborne laserscanning data, obtained from airplane). These materials are very expensive and additional funding with the help of the project would be very valuable. \nThe overall objective of this project is to improve physical activity of people, sustainability of orienteering in the area covered by the program and to activate cross-border cooperation in orienteering. This will be achieved through the jointly organized and implemented activities.\nThe main outputs of the project will be:\n\n\n1. At least two jointly organised training camps and two competitions are held. \n\n\n2. New orienteering maps are created on both sides of the border.\n\n\n3.

There are few places in Estonia where illegally dumped waste can be found in the forest, in Russia there are much more such sites. This is something new and original in this project.

It means that big part of local cultural and historical heritage - seto heritage -  is similar in both side of the border. It is the common challenge and task of local communities, families, municipal authorities, school teachers etc to encourage younger generation to learn and to value rich and unique local seto and Pechory cultural heritage and traditions. If they succeed, then it gives a good reason for young people to stay or to return (after finalizing their education) to their home region. This is one of the major key factors ensuring the socio-economical development and sustainability of the project area both side on the border.  Common challenge: Attracting young people to stay and work in their home region (or return after finalizing their education) is essential for all local municipalities. Otherwise the rural areas just fade away. This problem is similarly acute in all rural remote areas in both side of the border. The viability and sustainability of rural remote areas depends on their ability to attract young people to stay or return to their home area and to start familys and to create jobs there.  One possibility is to introduce and promote to the children the uniqueness of local cultural heritage from very young age, so they accept is as part of their daily lives. Overall objective:  Project aim is improved cooperation between municipal authorities and communities in introducing old traditions, customs and language in schools locating in historical Setomaa territory in order to preserve and promote local cultural and historical heritage. It includes celebration of religious and traditional holidays, food and handicraft traditions, old games, singing (seto leelo) and dancing traditions. Important task is to implement most appropriate methodology and approach for heritage teaching to local children and youngsters in an attractive way. The participation in project events and heritage teaching programme is voluntary for students. Specific objectives are: 1) Attractive heritage teaching programme created for schools in historical Setomaa area; and 2) Strong cooperation network created between municipalities, school and local communities Activities and outputs: WP2:   Partners involve best heritage specialists available in project area and also external experts to creation/updating of heritage teaching programme for 2 school grades. It will be piloted during 2019-2020 school year. The aim of the programme is increased children’s motivation to preserve local heritage culture and stronger identity. The activities include also joint training of teachers, development of joint teaching materials and providing needed equipment and materials to schools for teaching practical (music, handicraft etc) skills.  WP3: Partners organize many joint events for teachers and students (study visits, winter and summer camps, joint celebration of traditional holidays, joint competitions etc).  The events will be organized separately for 3 school grades- primary school (1.-3.school year), basic school (4.-9.school year) and high school (10.-12.school year).

Both in Estonia and Russia, the adults and youth are facing challenges in the health behaviour as the number of people who smoke, drink too much alcohol and are overweight is increasing. It is necessary to improve availability of healthy food and the opportunities that promote physical exercise, to reduce availability of and demand for substances that cause physical and mental addiction, and to promote safe behaviour in traffic, everyday life and leisure. Overall objective is to improve co-operation between local and regional authorities and their sub-units in order to promote healthy lifestyles among population in border areas of Estonia and Russia for local population and tourists. Specific objective is to widen availability of sporting and recreational opportunities and facilitate related people-to-people cooperation for local population and tourists in border areas of Estonia and Russia. Current Project intends to increase the level of physical activities and sporting among local population of target regions, by approaching with a new element – cross-border co-operation between Estonian and Russian local governments and their sub-units. It allows partners to put into practice a strong will to cooperate, and to involve populations in exchanges and interactions. Sport responds to people’s expectation to widen their knowledge about other countries, their social life and achievements. Sports cooperation is based first of all on working in networks between different partners situated on either side of the border. Most partners meet frequently in an informal context within cross-border working groups, or conduct frequent exchanges of information. In other words, sports cooperation is not yet a concern of dedicated cross-border structures or formal working groups within local authorities, but is principally founded on informal networks and can in certain cases be covered by conventions between several local authorities.

The EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region and its Action Plan requires cooperative efforts on the transposition of EU Directives and defines the MSFD as the strategic, horizontal action. Implementation of MSFD in the EU Member States in the Baltic Sea area is not yet achieved within all descriptors – e.g. there is still a need for determination of good environmental status (GES) boundaries regarding harmful and emerging substances, and establish and implement relevant monitoring programs. The overall objective of the project is adaptation and implementation of uniform biological indicators for assessment and control of environmental quality in the eastern GoF. The development and harmonisation of marine monitoring and environmental status assessment between countries sharing the same sub-regions are essential. In particular, the exchange of information regarding the evaluation of pressures, joint attempts to fill in gaps regarding GES descriptors and boundaries, joint development of monitoring programs are needed.\n\nThe proposed project is directly linked to the ongoing work in HELCOM and is the national (Estonian and Russian) and sub-regional (GoF) contribution rather than duplication regard to the assessment of the impact of harmful substances. The knowledge obtained in the frame of different previous independent and collaborative initiatives in the Baltic Sea region will be acknowledged and assessed/adapted for eastern GoF area. The main outputs of the project are the standard approach and strategies for transnational monitoring and assessment of emerging chemicals and harmful substances (HS) and their effects in the programme area and whole GoF. In particular: i) development and validation of techniques for monitoring impacts of selected HS on GoF benthic organisms; ii) compilation of pressure and impact maps based on modelling of the potential distribution of HS from different sources in the project area; iii) development of recommendations for regional (GoF) monitoring programme. The primary project beneficiaries are the environmental organisations at national (e.g. Ministry of Environment, National Environmental Boards), pan-Baltic and European levels (e.g., HELCOM), national political decision-makers (e.g. government commissions), administration bodies responsible for dealing with HS, Environmental NGOs, and last but not least, the public (through awareness raising). The main end-users of the project include private companies (such as wastewater and garbage disposal operators, ship operators, tourism operators, etc.) and municipalities (responsible for implementation of environmental policies at the local level).\n\nActivities include: i) the compilation of available data in Russia and Estonia and collection of additional data from hotspot areas in regard to the HS to evaluate the status of the GoF environment and assess the potential impact on the benthic organisms; ii) the study of priority substances included in the HELCOM Core Indicators list and pharmaceuticals considering their presence in the marine environment and estimating their impact on the biological processes of the key species of the eastern GoF; iii) modelling of the potential distribution of HS from different sources; iv) selection of most sensitive indicator species and biomarkers to develop the recommendations for regional (GoF) monitoring programme. \n\nThe close cooperation of countries and institutions surrounding the eastern GoF will secure profound and uniform status and impact assessment results for the area and, in turn, contributes to the Baltic-wide MSFD implementation activities. Hence, the project contributes to policy-driven and solution-oriented cross-border studies for the protection of the GoF.","2019-04-01","2022-08-31",340018.44,"Tallinna Tehnikaülikool","Tallinn University of Technology",214541.07,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"GreenMind","COMMON CHALLENGE. The GreenMind addresses issues of environment protection and sustainable use of natural resources in the transboundary Peipsi/Chudskoye Lake area, through the introduction of intensive environmental awareness and educational measures covering such topics as eutrophication, waste management, and energy efficiency. Currently, everyday human activities harmfully impact on the lake and its adjacent ecosystems, those are of utmost importance for the lives of a million people in the cross-border area, for its attractiveness for tourism, recreation and investments. The key to balance the carrying capacity of ecosystems and economic demands of people is regionally-based environmental awareness, which builds up necessary knowledge towards sustainable consumption and nature care. OVERALL OBJECTIVE is to contribute to increasing of public green minding for creation of environmentally-oriented, energy-efficient and attractive living conditions and recreation in the transboundary Peipsi/ Chudskoye region. Solving of the addressed issues will be essentially facilitated, since the project capitalizes environmental knowledge and environmental awareness practices in the Programme area, develops practical methodological tool-kits for the long-run, educates substantial number of existing and future environmental education practitioners to work with the project products, and facilitates the establishment of a wider societal context that will secure the sustainability of the project results. OUTPUTS. The fragmented environmental education and awareness initiatives, programs and materials will be capitalized in the EstRus region; a series of comprehensive and practical methodological materials will be produced for educational institutions for wide use. A draft concept of environmental education will be developed for Pskov Region and submitted as the project contribution to the Committee on Education. Main secondary schools and educational centers in Pskov Region and in 4 counties of Estonia will be informed about the project, involved into its activities, and provided with the project environmental tool-kits. Two social platforms – on Facebook and Vkontakte – will be established to secure networking, attract wider population, and enable long-term dissemination of project results. Comprehensive and motivating theoretical and practical knowledge about a sustainable way of living, exchange of good practices and innovative solutions as well as intensive training program applied in the project will contribute to urging inhabitants to adopt a more environment-friendly behavior, thus contributing to nature protection and sustainable use of nature resources. The key target groups / final beneficiaries are: educators, students, kindergarten- and schoolchildren, as well as the wider public of the region. ACTIVITIES. Nearly 20 public events and 8 environmental campaigns will be held. At least 80 educators, 40 children will be trained for multiplying knowledge for the long run. Not less than 50 students and 50 families (min.200 prns) will be involved into green minding process within 2 project contests of social eco-advertisements and “Eco-family”. Min. 50 outdoor public events'; organizers will be trained to organize eco-friendly activities and min. At least 530 Programme area residents will take personal and active part in the campaigns; hence their capacity to act nature-friendly will be reinforced; at least 1000 residents will be informed about the environmental issues raised by the project; at least 10 organizations (cafés, supermarkets, petrol stations) will join eco-campaigns and start introducing eco-friendly initiatives. APPROACH. The project implementation includes cross-sectoral, participatory, synergy approaches and compliance with national and regional regulations that will be secured by consolidation of efforts of educational and environmental experts of state, municipal, non-governmental institutions for preparation, distribution and usage of locally based educational tools and by public involvement into activities encouraging the transition to environment-friendly behavior. Cross-border approach is of need to find joint solutions for increasing environmental awareness in rational use of joint natural assets, which are cross-border in nature, i.e. they are inseparable. NOVELTY. The project capitalizes data on environmental awareness and education in the entire Programme area for the first time; develops comprehensive, friendly and motivating practical tools and manuals both for educational system and wider public; introduces an extensive nature-friendly training and campaign program covering the Peipsi/ Chuldskoye lake region.","2019-08-01","2022-05-31",382257.41,"Псковская областная общественная организация \"Чудской проект\"","Pskov regional public organization \"Lake Peipsi Project (Pskov)\"",109244.78,"Y"]

The need to increase the awareness about environmental protection and efficient use of energy resources is growing. \n\nMain challenges that we are tackling in the project is insufficient environmental awareness and people readiness to use  knowledge in your everyday actions. In this project we would like to show, what people can do in their everyday work/study life to act more sustainable way. People should understand better their direct and indirect impact of their activities to nature. Shaping people’s attitude and behaviour is a long process, but each action has an influence. This help to develop understanding in society that environmentally sustainable consumption (incl efficient use of energy resources) supports the preservation of biodiversity and helps to mitigate climate change and adapt to climate change impacts. In general education level the education for sustainable development is well organized as environmental education is part of different curriculums. In universities of applied sciences there are not so many regulations about environmental education. So, we would like to fill the gap and start piloting sustainable education classes that relate to study directions.

Regional  hubs and clusters are important here because of the assumption that geographical proximity on a local scale is crucial, highlighting the necessity of having interconnected companies, skills, knowledge and institutions in a particular region. Audio-visual media production is forming a significant part of the creative industries sector. Producers' feedback shows that regional filmfunds and cash rebate system are very important factor in attracting national and international projects to the region. Stable incoming production allows local film producers and community to invest in permanent staff and grow sustainable businesses. According to the study \" Economic impact of the Film Estonia cash-rebate\", made by Olsberg SPI in August 2022, per every euro invested, a total of 5.00 euros of value is created in the economy, of which 2.50 euros in the film industry, 1.20 euros in the supply chain and 1.30 euros through the wage effect.\nThe number of regional film funds in Europe is increasing, and a lot of film productions already take place outside the capitals, yet regional film funds,  hubs and clusters, face many challenges.\nThese are mainly the issues of capacity building, attracting talents, investments, boosting production volume. Competition with the capital city and with other regional film funds within the same national territory are also complications. On the other hand, operating on a smaller, regioal scale may allow for innovation and contribute to advantages such as social capital and local support, access to diverse stories, spectacular natural landscapes that practitioners in the capital do not have.\nOVERALL OBJECTIVE:\nProject main overall objective is to promote the film region South-Estonia, to develop the network and community and to increase audiovisual sector SME's  competitiveness and entrepreneurship in South-Estonia.

[null,null,null,"COOLspot","CHALLENGE. The COOLspot draws attention of the citizens to environmental issues arising as a result of climate change and biodiversity loss, and introduces them to climate and environmentally conscious solutions already available, taking as an example the city of Tartu. According to the Estonian Environmental Awareness study 2022, a large portion of the country’s population still lacks a systematic understanding of how their everyday activities affect the environment; they also don’t consider a global ecological crisis as something that affects them directly. Only 11% of the population of the city of Tartu is aware of the city’s goals to achieve climate neutrality. Tartu’s carbon footprint has been increasing in recent years, especially due to the rise in private transportation use and electricity consumption in private businesses. The municipality sees reaching a community agreement about the urgent nature of climate change and readiness of the citizens to change their lifestyles as a key in achieving climate goals. Thus it is important not only to spread knowledge and the solutions to mitigate climate change amongst the citizens, but also to support the citizens&#39; motivation and skills to help achieve climate neutrality through their own actions.\nOVERALL OBJECTIVE of the project is to bring climate change and biodiversity loss related issues to the public space - the park of Tartu Nature House in the city center. The park provides an important recreational function, but also it is maintained in an environmentally friendly and climate conscious way together with the building of Tartu Nature House. The solutions already adapted by Tartu Environmental Education Centre (TEEC) and efforts of the municipality, including climate goals, will be made more visible and understandable through the educational trail with information and activity displays. The park is a perfect location for such a trail: it has been found by environmental awareness studies in Estonia that people who frequently experience positive emotions from being in nature are also more motivated to protect nature and make environmentally friendly choices in their everyday lives. The trail will help visitors of the park to see the “invisible” – how each person’s and community&#39;s everyday actions impact in a positive or negative way our living environment and our planet as a whole. The trail and the park as a safe and attractive place will be promoted in the city and introduced through public events and guided tours to the general public and through study activities to students of different ages.\nOUTPUTS & ACTIVITIES. As a result of the investments made into park’s infrastructure (repairment and small construction works) together with installing educational display boards, the park will become a safer, more accessible to different groups of people, attractive and suitable place for both educational activities and recreation. The trail will highlight infrastructure elements added as a result of the COOLspot project such as separate waste collection bins, a playground with vegetable garden boxes, drainage system for leading heavy rain water to the pond and garden beds, as well as existing solutions in the park (i.e. compost bins) and in the building as seen from outside (i.e. solar panels). The displays around the trail will be designed to make visitors interact with these infrastructure elements, understand issues and explore solutions that these elements exemplify. The renovations in the park and the trail will be announced in main Tartu communication channels, including newspapers, and two public events will be organized for 250 citizens, with families as the main target group. The public events will focus on introducing the trail through guided activities, as well as provide workshops teaching green skills. In addition, training will be organized for 10 Tartu Nature School teachers, who will learn how to use the trail as a study resource and will then conduct classes with their students, involving 250 students of different ages in total. Finally the trail will be introduced to 75 visitors of the Visitor Centre during guided tours. 585 people in total will be involved during the project into awareness raising activities, and later the trail will be available to explore to at least 30 000 visitors of the centre annually.","2023-07-01","2023-12-31",103010.2,"Sihtasutus Tartu Keskkonahariduse Keskus","Foundation Tartu Environmental Education Centre",103010.2,"Y"]

The lake’s eutrophication causes changes in the lake’s ecosystem, reduces fish stocks, decreases the quality of water and, in critical cases, also encourages the spread of blue-green algae that emits a poison which endangers the biota as well as the health of swimmers. From the entrepreneurship angle, there are several challenges: - the growth in the number of water craft users has also increased the environmental risks. There is the need for modern small harbours equipped with high-quality and environmental-friendly facilities and equipment; - existing range of related tourism services and products is rather limited, due to lack of suitable infrastructure objects. Several harbours are in use, but mooring conditions are primitive, proper piers are missing and harbours do not have a contemporary infrastructure to meet the environmental requirements and to collect waste from watercraft users.   The overall objective of the Project is to promote sustainable socio-economic and environmental development of the Lake Peipsi/ Chudsko-Pskovskoe area.   Project Specific Objectives are to contribute to the improvement of environmental situation and to the socio-economic development of the Lake Peipsi/ Chudsko-Pskovskoe area.   The objectives will be achieved through the the following activities:   With regard to environment:  - reconstructing 1 water (in Cheryokha village) and 1 wastewater treatment facility (in Pskov city), and by establishing contemporary infrastructure, which meet environmental requirements in 7 small harbours (in Vasknarva of Alutaguse, Mustvee, Luunja, Tartu, Räpina and Värska on the Estonian side and in Tolbitsa village of Pskovsky area on the Russian side)  - reconstruction of wastewater treatment facility of Pskov city to meet HELCOM requirements and Russian standards for main pollutants  - 2 000 inhabitants of Cheryokha village will have access to clean water   With regard to entrepreneurship:  - new contemporary small harbours’ infrastructure established in 5 small harbours (in Värska, Luunja, Vasknarva of Alutaguse and Tartu in Estonia and Tolbitsa village in Russia); additional infrastructure objects and services developed in 3 small harbours (in Räpina and Mustvee in Estonia and in Pskovsky area in Russia)  - ca 70 new mooring places established with the infrastructure development of existing or new harbours, incl. 20 in Värska, 30 in Luunja, 10 in Vasknarva of Alutaguse, 10 in Mustvee.  - ca 14 new workplaces established in small harbours, incl. 1 in Värska, 1 in Räpina, 1 in Mustvee, 2 in Luunja, 1 in Vasknarva of Alutaguse, 8 in Tartu  - improved regular transport connection between mainland and islands in Pskovsky area for local inhabitants, entrepreneurs and tourists - 4 times increases passenger traffic by boats For implementation, the Project is divided into 5 work packages: -        Work package P Preparation -        Work package M Management -        Work package T1 Core activity Exchange of Experiences and Capacity Building -        Work package I1 Investment Small harbours in Estonia -        Work package I2 Investment Small Harbours and Water/Waste Water Treatment Facilities in Russia -        Work package C Communication and Visibility   The achievement of the project objectives will be more efficient using the cross-border cooperation, because environmental effects and human actions regarding Lake Peipsi/Chudsko-Pskovskoe are always cross-border in nature.

[null,null,null,"BioStyrene","The common challenges of the programme area, that we are jointly tackling, are:   (i) 99% of the plastics raw material originates from non-renewable fossil fuels, which is not sustainable in the long term. A suitable alternative feedstock is needed. (ii) Plastics used in packages do not degrade and may persist for centuries. The situation around an enclosed Baltic Sea is especially alarming as marine animals and seabirds are widely known to ingest small pieces of plastic with dire consequences. Fully biodegradable plastic packages need to be developed. (iii) Most packages are composed of different types of non-degradable polymers making efficient recycling difficult. Also, due to the overall small volumes of waste in the Baltic region compared to the centre of Europe or Asia, there is not enough industry in the region for recycling to be competitive. Consequently, only a small fraction can be efficiently reused for new products in the programme region. (v) Energy recovery through incineration is an option to deal with non-degradable plastics; however, many harmful chemicals can be released during incineration together with CO2 of fossil origin.   Through cross-border cooperation and interdiciplinary knowledge, the project objective is to develop a scalable process to replace fossil based non-biodegradable styrene used in polymer industry with a potentially biodegradable bio-based styrene counterpart from wood biomass and test the applications of this material in new products. Using local renewable feedstocks the Baltic plastics industry would decouple the industry from fossil fuel supply and strengthen the local wood processing industry by providing new applications for low-quality wood and pulp production byproducts. Furthermore, the biodegradability of the material would reduce the impact of plastics on the environment and relieve the region';s struggle to cope with non-biodegradable waste.   Project outputs: 1) Validated step-by-step synthesis and processing method for producing novel styrene counterparts. 2) Formation of new cooperation connections between private companies and universities as well as between Estonia and Russia. The SMEs involved in the project will have new methods and products to support their continued growth and competitiveness.   The first output will benefit the region as a whole by reducing the reliance on fossil fuels while strengthening the wood processing industry in the Baltic region, allowing low-quality wood to be converted into highly valued products.  Using biodegradable materials will reduce the plastic waste generation in the region, thus reducing the pressure on local environment.   The second output will benefit regional SME development by fostering cross-border business contacts and the development of new products (3 project partners are SMEs). The SMEs involved will gain a competitive advantage through cooperation between public R&D sector and cross-border businesses (2 project partners are universities). Future cooperation between the R&D and private sector is facilitated through the cooperation of universities and local SMEs within the scope of this project. The activities of the project are:  1) The development and the small-scale testing of various styrene-type monomers from lignin in a laboratory setting. The main outcome is a selection of stable monomers with polymerisation capabilities. 2) Scale-up and adjustment of the synthesis process to ensure high yield and cost-efficiency. The main outcome is a selection of styrene analogs that can be produced cost-efficiently along with the most efficient production methods. 3) Testing of the selected monomers in different plastics and coatings by SMEs. To reach the project objective and realise full impact, the project consortium includes the entire value chain from the raw material source and R&D institution to scale-up manufacturing and final product development and testing. This approach supports successful implementation and dissemination of project results after the project completion. The activities are set up to develop, test and demonstrate the new compounds to ensure the effective transfer of knowledge from the universities to production and provide feedback to the R&D institutions to inform new research and product development. Thus, the Estonian-Russian cooperation is significant to: 1) Bring together cross-border knowledge about organic synthesis and wood-based chemistry that is not available in a single country. 2) Facilitate the transfer of knowledge from R&D to practical use by bringing together the required partners of the value chain across the border, including lignin supplier, scale-up, manufacturing and end-users. As a result, novel styrene counterparts are created and innovative new products brought to market.","2019-06-01","2022-08-31",326955.59,"Tartu Ülikool","University of Tartu",212184.76,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"BioAware","The project is focused on programme strategic objective common challenges in environment and public health and thematic objectives - TO6 Environmental protection, climate change mitigation and adaption.  The project involves two regional capitals of border areas - City of Pskov  (Pskov Oblast, RU) and City of Võru (Võru County, EE). Both centres often face environmental challenges and need to tackle waste remediation on routine basis, there is also need for environmental protection and increase of biodiversity in urban areas.  In cities people do not employ enough environment-friendly practices or acknowledge how littering or contaminating affects the living environment or that environmental pollution affects us all regardless of administrative borders. The project’s overall goal is to raise the people’s awareness of the importance of environmental protection and energy-efficient practices, and to create an attractive, biologically diverse and environmentally sustainable urban area in regional centres (Võru and Pskov) at the border areas. The project activities will help to shape people';s behaviour and raise their awareness about the need of environmental protection. Also, attractive biologically diverse study and recreation area will be created. The area got selected based on input from educational institutions and citizens. Cross-border cooperation is necessary because the capitals of the border areas face the same problems. There are regional centres on both sides of the border - City of Pskov is the centre of Pskov Oblast, and City of Võru is the centre of Võru County. Both regional centres (despite of the size) tackle waste problems on routine basis.  International approach is needed to establish a cooperation network between local authorities, educational and environmental institutions in the border areas and share best practices in the field of environmental education. Experience sharing improves the quality of environmental education and harmonises the level of education on both sides of the border.  The main target group is children, because working with children the whole family will be involved in one way or another. The focus of the project activities is planned with motto \"people to people\" -  there will be many different events for students and families in which other citizens are also involved.  There will be at least 18 different awareness raising events (approximately in total 800 people are involved) that will help to shape people';s behaviour about the need of environmental protection and the importance of sustainable and biologically diverse environment. 40 students are actively involved in environmental research or art project. Two urban areas (Võru (EE) 4,2 ha, Pskov (RU) 3,9 ha) will be reconstructed and will become attractive biologically diverse study and recreation areas. There are 4 parnters (Võru Town Government and Võru Upper Secondary School from Estonia and Pskov City Administration and Ecological-Biological Centre from Russia) and 6 associate partners (Võru Järve School, Võru Kreutzwald School, Võru Kesklinna School and Environmental Board from Estonia and Pskov Humanitarian Lyceum, Centre for special education No 1 from Russia) in the project. All partners and associate partners are specially selected to implement the project in most successful way and achieve set goals of the project and programme. Beneficiaries are: the citizens (especially children) - rise of awareness, attractive biologically diverse study and recreation area;   educational institutions - networks between different organisations, teaching and learning methods and materials, exchange of best practises; local authorities - network between different organisations, exchange of best practises, improved urban area which becomes attractive biologically diverse study and recreation area, cleaner living environment. Establishing the environmental education area directly in city centre is a new approach. Traditionally, environmental education centres have been set up outside the cities whereas in this case, the innovative approach is to establish educational areas within cities - closer and more accessible to people. Also, the new aspect of the project is that people themselves are involved in creation of urban areas that have educational function. For instance in Võru (EE) there will be a park of willows (it';s unique in Europe) which is attractive and useful for many reasons: it helps to stop flooding of shores of Koreli; it gives biodiversity to the area;  it will be a study base for students and dendrologists: the willows themselves can be material for handicraft lessons (basketry) and it supports sustainable management; and appearance of the park is attractive in every season due to seasonal changes in willows'; foliage and shape.","2019-04-18","2022-04-17",492782.93,"Võru Linnavalitsus","Võru City Government",267162.33,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"TYPE","Furniture manufacturers with long traditions nowadays operate in the town and region of Võru (see the historical overview attached to the application). At the same time, the added value created in these companies (mainly SMEs) is rather modest, the lack of innovation and inability to use their competitive advantages being one of the reasons.\nThe project addresses the problem as to what extent our designers and product developers use past experiences and local heritage to get inspired from traditions and old skills (know-how) to create new modern furniture concepts. A related challenge is that there is a serious shortage of good specialists in today&#39;s furniture industry - from designers and technologists to machine operators; this is shown by research and confirmed by employers in the woodworking and furniture sector. Where one finds quality employees, how, when and who does prepare them to become skilled workers - this is a challenge local enterprises in the network (called Kagu-Eesti Puiduklaster MTÜ) are constantly facing in these days.\n\nThe lack of high-quality labor in production industry of the field has therefore become more serious, and we have the situation where young people simply do not enter the specialties of wood production technology. It does indicate the lack of interest among young people about future work in this area.\nHowever, the focus of the project is not training young people - that is the task of vocational education and other education systems (applied higher education). This project is launched with the aim of establishing a new place of interest - an entrepreneurial discovery site that introduces the success story of the Võru furniture production (the manifold use of wood as material, the development of design thinking, exciting facts and stories) and through modern means attracts especially young people to discover the design of furniture items, to understand the charms of producing things as well as their economical use.\nWe feel it is important that young people have such a place for interest education, and the premises related to the project area together with materials, knowledge and new ideas gathered so far would gladly offer that all. While preserving and promoting the rich local furniture heritage, we also want to support local businesses in enhancing their added value of products - this in turn provides a basis for innovation and strengthens the regional identity of high-quality woodworkers and furniture manufacturers. The technological know-how, skills and generational traditions collected over time in the local production industry serves as a valuable resource that our producers have not been able to exploit sufficiently so far. The project idea and action plan are underpinned by the experience of Scandinavian and Nordic furniture producers valuing their heritage and making good use of it in this highly competitive business sector.\nThrough exhibiting and popularizing the rich history of the Võru local furniture and manufacturing following results and benefits will arise:\n\n1) local furniture industry is more commonly valued and its important role as a driver of economic life recognised;\n2) interest of local youth in the woodwork and furniture making and the related technical specialities increases;\n3)  a cooperation and the exchange of competences between local enterprises operating in the South-East Estonian region is encouraged. The applicant South-East Estonian Innovation Center (operating itself at the former furniture industry territory) is motivated to further develop a kind of co-working space at the building enabling entrepreneurs of the industry to establish (cross-border) contacts and innovate product development in their business activity.\n\nThe project is implemented in co-operation with the key players willing to boost the entrepreneurship in the sector and in the very region - the lead partner is South-East Estonian Innovation Centre; the associates are: South-East Estonian Wood Cluster, an umbrella NGO for the wood processers and furniture producers in the region, and Võru County Development  Agency as the development public sector organization. The role of the respective partner is summarised under the Partner sub-section, taking into account their main functions and contributions for the project outcomes and sustainability of the end results.\nAs for the industry sector in question the project assumes that the end beneficiaries are companies more wisely using previously acquired skills and knowledge in designing and manufacturing products in their business activities.\nRegarding the other main target group - school people of younger age - the project does not really make any difference based on age, gender or other, i.e everyone is invited to visit the exhibition and discovery hub, try out furniture modelling or explore the learning and internship opportunities provided by local SMEs.","2023-07-01","2023-12-31",323662,"Mittetulundusühing Kagu-Eesti Innovatsioonikeskus","South-East Estonian Innovation Centre",323662,"Y"]

There are special programmes run by the state institutions like Enterprise Estonia, Estonian Unemployment Insurance Fund or Settle in Estonia that introduce those who want to start an enterprise to the main steps in this field. However, there has been little support in business creation and development for specific social target groups -  under-represented and disadvantaged populations. These groups experience a lack of entrepreneurship skills and in general find it more difficult to integrate to the labour market. Throughout the past year Estonia has experienced many changes, one of them being an unprecedented inflow of Ukrainian refugees. This disadvantaged group finds it especially hard to integrate to the labour market due to adoption process to the Estonian environment and also the language barrier. Objective and expected change:\nThis project addresses the labour market barrier by supporting Ukrainians in their own entrepreneurial journey so that they would not have to be dependent on others. Providing entrepreneurial skills to Ukrainian migrants ensures their self reliance to enter the Estonian labour market. Therefore, the main objective of the business development programme is to expand the range of already available entrepreneurship and SME development trainings by focusing on the target group - refugees from Ukraine, who have founded a business in Estonia or have prior entrepreneurial experience when living in Ukraine. The programme will be adjusted to the needs of the target audience and offer them more opportunities to integrate to the labour market. The project benefits local governments as it eases their burden on providing social support to the target group. Activities\nThe main activities of the project are a business development programme, study visits and cultural events. The business development programme lasts for 4 months (14 weeks) and consists of bi-weekly physical training sessions. Each training session is a 1-day workshop that includes presentations on the selected topics from experienced trainers, 1-on-1 mentoring and time for individual and peer learning sessions. The programme will have a total of 8 sessions. The initial indicative topical focus of the sessions is:\nKick-off. Management and strategic thinkingSocial impact and social business models Branding and marketing Digitalisation and IT toolsAccess to financePitching training and presentation skillsDemo day.\nTwo business development programmes will be held simultaneously, one in Tartu and the other in Central or North-East Estonia.  The kick-off and demo days will be held jointly while other workshops will be held in their main locations. Both programmes have 12-15 participants, with the project reaching a total of 24-30 Ukrainian-founded enterprises. In addition, the main programme is supported by study visits. Eight visits to business hubs, R&D; centers, or specific enterprises will be organized monthly (4 in both geographic locations) for the participants of the business development programme. The visits will introduce the target group to the Estonian entrepreneurial environment and will put the participants in contact with relevant stakeholders with whom they could form future collaboration avenues. Lastly, the project also organizes cultural events to the participants and their families to better integrate them in the local society and culture. These events take the form of local excursions intended to build community and share Estonian culture. Additionally, the site visits and cultural events are also an excellent chance for the participants to network among themselves as well as with local actors in the business and culture ecosystem. \nOutputs and main beneficiaries\nThe main output of the programme will be the development of 24-30 Ukrainian-founded SMEs in the programme area (Central, South and North-East Estonia). The business owners will acquire new skills and knowledge about the ways to implement and further develop their enterprise in Estonia and therefore increase their resilience, competitiveness and growth potential - all of which are important to ensure the founders socioeconomic well-being. The knowledge that the target group will receive will be a long-term asset that is helpful to making further steps on their entrepreneurship path as well as life in Estonia. The sustainability of the training programme will be ensured by its replicability and evaluation - it will be a blueprint for further initiatives for supporting the entrepreneurial journey of disadvantaged groups.","2023-07-01","2023-12-31",115444.3,"MTÜ Eesti Pagulasabi","Estonian Refugee Council",46386.5,"Y"]

[null,null,null,"ACTIVE VILLAGE","Common challenge:\nThe popularity of local farm products and organic/ecological food has increased enormously in last decade. Farm products´ freshness, naturalness and good taste are highly valued by consumers both in Estonia, Russia and in abroad. As the sector is quite popular, many young people/families preferring to live in countryside decide to start business in local food sector (farming and/or production). However, small farm producers are not known enough in their own region, neither in neighbouring regions across the border. Often their products are in humble packages and they lack knowledge and resources for promotion and finding direct sales channel outside their own home region. Rural SME’s engaged with horticulture and gardening have limited capacities to process and store the farm produce they grow, which prevents them to increase their incomes and to produce more high-value products. In general, it has a negative impact on the socio-economic development of the rural border regions. It is important to create and improve infrastructure for business development, as well as tools for further advancement of entrepreneurship system through multifaceted education, exchange of best practices, and cross-border cooperation.\nProject ACTIVE VILLAGE contributes to the solution of the wide range of abovementioned problems in programme area.\nCross-border approach and main activities:\nSince there is lack of co-operation between farmers in border areas, low know-how on how to produce horticultural products for higher added value and to establish short supply- chain, it is needed to organize joint activities and events. The main working method of the project is to bring experienced and young entrepreneurs working in the same business field together, and let them to establish personal contacts with colleagues acting in same business field. The role of project partners is to offer them a platform (series of events) suitable for exploring possibilities for further cooperation. The following types of events - mutual study tours, incl. joint workshops, joint participation in local fairs and farm markets, incl. contact events, ca 3 joint practical seminars and study tour to Leningrad oblast- will be organized for entrepreneurs.\nAt the same time participants learn new methods in product development, eco-farming, marketing, packaging, processing of horticultural products etc. For 2 groups involving ca 45 entrepreneurs partners organize a training programme with 8-10 modules (during 1,5 years). During the  programme participants prepare their business plan for next 3 years using the support of project staff and external experts. Another aspect of the project approach is exchange of best practices when creating Processing and Packaging Centre “Active village” and Freezing Centre in the South-East Estonia. As there is a lack of opportunities for small producers for processing their products (berries, herbs, fruits etc), then there is a need to invest moder infrastructure in both side of the border enabling the target group to offer to customers products with higher added value.\nNew solution includes integrated support to the target group providing them new knowledge (theory), practical methods and case stories (practice), processing, freezing and packaging opportunities, marketing events (fairs, farm markets) etc. Usually SMEs are supported with a focus on specific support measures,but current project uses a more complex approach.\nObjective:\nIncreasing rural SME's development and entrepreneurship by fostering cross-border cooperation and product development in horticultural sector.  The objective will be achieved through organizing training and promotional activities, strengthening of cross-border business contacts and creation of modern infrastructure for processing of horticultural products in South-East Estonia and Pskov region.\nResults: \nThe assortment and volume of farm products and processed local food products will increase and the competitiveness of rural SMEs in project area will be improved.

People in peripheral territories with a lower income have poorer levels of health and possibility/knowledge to take care of their disable or elderly family members or relatives/neighbors. Special competences and capacity of profiled institution is very demanded, but technical equipment and equal opportunities for all patients and clients, especially for disabled people must be improved. Lack of good examples and ergonomic solutions are also the problem for living places of people with low mobility or with disability. Not much information about not expensive, simple ergonomic solutions are available in place. Rehabilitation services for patients after hospitals who need medical attention and assistance for some time, support to persons in terminal condition and members of their families, social education, using ergonomic solutions and guidance are of a high importance and claimed by local inhabitants in rural areas far from capitals. Moreover, region of Lõuna-Eesti has close cultural, historical, and social connections with bordering Russian regions due to high share of Russian-speaking people in the region and lack of cooperation between specialists in Estonia and Russia, so communication with RU colleagues is needed to improve the quality of the providing services and to build trust.

[null,null,null,"SME ACCESS","Common challenge: Local municipalities in border areas are particularly suffering from economic depression and decrease of population. However, in these areas in both sides of the border still exists an authentic rural lifestyle, culture and business activity, mainly including culture and nature based tourism, handicraft and agriculture. The main problem for local entrepreneurs is the ability to sell their products or provide services on site due to the absence of a comfortable and high-quality roads, connecting remote territories with district centres and national main routes and settlements. Farmers producing ecological products have to make an extra effort and to use alternative forms of transportation, which increases their costs and makes the product less competitive. A direct contact between food producers and end customers is getting more important these days. It enables for farmers to offer higher value for customer and to receive fair price for their products.  Project objective: The project objective is increased SME development in Setomaa and Pechory district, which will be achieved through traditional business promoting and improved infrastructure. It is expected that ca 30 SME’s from project area (ca 15 from Värska/Saatse area and ca 15 from Pechory district) will be actively and substantially involved to project activities and benefit directly from improved infrastructure. Main outputs: It is expected that ca 30 SME’s from project area (ca 15 from Värska/Saatse area and ca 15 from Pechory district) will be actively and substantially involved to project activities and benefit directly from improved infrastructure. As a result of project activities these businesses get new opportunities for growth and higher competitiveness. They will be provided with new skills and knowledge for product development/marketing. New and improved infrastructure enables them to enlarge their client base and to establish new business contacts using short supply chain (direct sale to the clients in the farm, in market places etc). Additionally even more SME’s from project area (up to 50) will use the market places established in Pechory and Värska for direct selling to the end-customers using short supply chain.  Main activities: 1) Arrangement of fairs, study tours, seminars and workshops for SME';s 2) Construction of market place in Pechory and equipping 2 market places in Pechory and Värska 3) Reconstruction of the road Värska-Saatse-Ulitina-Est/Rus border (14,618 km) and Krupp-Kulje road (6,482 km) 4) (Re)construction of 3 foot/cycle ways and 3 parking areas in Värska area Approach and cross-border cooperation reason: Partners have decided to use sectoral approach in project implementation and have selected the target group from specific field- rural SME';s and persons interested in entrepreneurship in non-traditional farming sector. The sectoral approach makes project activities more attractive for target group as the approach and the content will be more appropriate and practical. In that way it is possible to meet their specific needs and expectations. Since there is lack of co-operation between farmers in border areas, low know-how on how to produce farm products for higher added value and to establish short supply- chain, then it is needed to organize different activities and events. The main working method of the project is to bring experienced and young entrepreneurs working in the same business field together, and let them to establish personal contacts with colleagues acting in same sector. The role of project partners is to offer them a platform (series of events) suitable for exploring possibilities for further cooperation. High quality road infrastructure is essential part of good business environment in any region, incl. rural remote areas. Therefore partners have decided that investments to local roads in rural areas connecting rural villages (where non-traditional farming takes place) with local centers (Värska, Pechory) is needed.  Using cross-border cooperation for project implementation is essential, because the SME’s from project area share the same challenges and problems and it’s useful to use the experiences of both regions for solving them. Joint approach is used in creation of infrastructure for SME’s from project area, improvement of their skills and knowledges and in establishing of sales opportunities in market places.","2019-04-01","2022-10-31",3514294.89,"Setomaa vallavalitsus","Setomaa Municipality Government",440238.41,"Y"]
[null,null,null,"ADRIENNE","The sea knows no borders – the decisions about economic development and resource use in one Baltic Sea country can influence all countries bordering this already impacted marine area. Increasing maritime activities in the Gulf of Finland area and the uncoordinated use of coastal and marine areas have become problematic for the marine environment and maritime-based economies. The current EU directives set forth the requirement for unified and transboundary actions in order to address common challenges in these marine environmental issues. Similarly, the trilateral cooperation between Russia, Estonia and Finland has clearly indicated a need for a common management approach in the Gulf of Finland region. A fundamental component for the design of efficient policies and real management actions is knowledge about impacts of pressures on the spatial distribution of biodiversity and ecosystem functions. Separate and interactive effects of various human-induced pressures on the environment is far from being well understood, resulting in ineffective management measures.   In the ADRIENNE project we assess how alternative human uses either alone or combined with other pressures may affect diversity, ecosystem functioning and services in the highly utilized and sensitive transboundary waterbody of the Gulf of Finland. In order to achieve this goal, we will combine novel spatial modelling products of species, habitats and fishery-related ecosystem services with expert-based assessment of synergistic effects of human uses on the biota and vice versa. This knowledge is summarized in a GIS portal with a capability of assessing interactive responses of various human-induced stressors on the Gulf of Finland ecosystem under different human-induced nutrient loading and climate change scenarios. The established Assessment Portal is unique as it is built on harmonized methodologies, big data with high scientific quality and novel machine learning modelling framework. From the user side, however, it is simple and highly self-intuitive to use. The used methodologies involve analyses of the status and trends of different sectors, focusing on the important economic drivers and pressures in the Gulf of Finland area. Here we consider all sectors related to marine exploitation with an emphasis on fishery, eutrophication, nuclear power plant exploitation, different types of disturbance of the seabed, and alien species. In this project, we develop novel approaches with a capability of addressing the impacts and risks of climate change in interaction with other human mediated stressors for species, habitats and associated ecosystem services in the Gulf of Finland ecosystem. As such, the project helps to find new ways to mitigate risks of intensified human uses and climate change in the fragile and valuable ecosystem of the Gulf of Finland. Moreover, by ensuring an effective transboundary engagement of key stakeholders through all our activities, the project fosters multidisciplinary co-operation and communication in Russia, Estonia and Finland concerning issues related to the protection of marine nature and human activities in the Gulf of Finland region.   As key outputs, the ADRIENNE project provides harmonized map layers of key environmental variables and sea uses as well as common algorithms on how multiple human uses affect the biota and likewise how disturbed ecosystems are linked to the losses of human uses. The environmental value layers include high resolution maps of benthic biodiversity, species and habitats, spawning and nursery areas of commercially important fish species and associated ecosystem service values. The pressure layers focus on eutrophication via point and diffuse sources, fishing, shipping, construction and energy sectors and their synergistic effect on the biotic layers above. The current project also results in the GIS Assessment Portal for maritime spatial planners and resource managers with a capability of assessing interactive responses of sector-specific human-induced stressors on the Gulf of Finland ecosystem under different nutrient load management and climate change scenarios. The Assessment Portal also serves as an efficient dissemination of all novel information of joint natural assets to environmental managers, planners and a wider public. Protecting the environment and sustainably using nature values are the core responsibilities for spatial development policy, development strategy and the development of spatial plans. Ultimately, the project will target limitations of current maritime spatial planning practice and resource management as well as address common transboundary challenges in marine environment issues. The improved biodiversity of joint natural assets will be achieved by smart planning and increasing awareness of environmental protection.","2019-04-01","2022-03-31",508991.79,"Tartu Ülikool","University of Tartu",332473.27,"Y"]

Estonia and Russia use their own, significantly different measured data and calculation methods for estimation the total nutrient load to the Gulf of Finland transported by the Narva river flow.  Due to particular boundary position along the river middle course, measurements for whole cross-section of the river Narva currently are impossible. Discharge values in the Narva river mouth from Russian side are calculated by the volume of electricity generated at Narva hydroelectric power station (HPP), while Estonian data are based on water level/discharge relation only on the Estonian side of the river. Nutrients concentration data can also vary due to different sampling time and methods that hampers accurate assessment of water quality for the whole river cross-section. Thus, the evaluation and assessment criteria are not harmonized. These are the main bottlenecks for the environmental cooperation. Thus, improving the quality of shared water resources by creating harmonized tools for reliable assessment of the quantity, quality and nutrient loads of water from the Narva River Basin to the Gulf of Finland is critical. Developed harmonized methods and criteria for reliable water quality assessment will allow common sustainable use and management of the joint water assets, which in turn positively influence on the quality of aquatic fresh and marine ecosystems. The cooperation of the leading national organizations in the field of environmental protection with a great work experience in the Program Region, will ensure the high level of competence and implementation of mutually agreed methods and estimation criteria.  The project offers benefit to end-users and actors involved in long-term actions for the improving of water quality in the river Narva, as they will have actual water quantity and quality assessment. In addition, beneficiaries are activities outside of the water sector such as socio-economic assessment, investment strategies, construction of buildings, reduced energy usage, support fish and agriculture, providing public recreation opportunities for over 60 000 people etc. Main outputs: Developed harmonized methods for measuring water discharges, estimation of the river Narva runoff and the total nutrient load entering to the Gulf of Finland. Complex index obtained for harmonized water quality assessment criteria. Increasing of environmental awareness. Main activities: Common database creation. In-situ measurements (water discharges, nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations). Analysis of the contribution of various type pollution (anthropogenic point and diffuse, natural diffuse) to the formation of nutrient load and development of the harmonized methods for calculating the annual nutrient load with Narva river. Developing common criteria, based on the common understanding, together with the reliable assessment of pollution loads flowing into the sea. Increasing environment awareness for end users and the wider community through a link to the project';s website, organized communication campaigns, eco-events and workshops. On the basis of the common complex index, harmonized methods for estimating the quantity and the quality of water bodies in the Narva River Basin will be developed.

Decaying garbage is a favorable environment for a number of micro-organisms, that can cause infections and diseases. The amount of solid waste is rising very rapidly and it is a great necessity to minimize the volume of waste that goes to landfills. This environmental issue imposes additional requirements to the waste management system of participating regions: Kohtla-Järve, Slantsy and Pskov. As selective waste collection makes a major contribution to improving the above mentioned environmental situation, partners will construct underground (Kohtla-Järve, Pskov) and on-ground (Slantsy) recycling points to municipal institutions like kindergartens and schools and install there modern, completely sealed containers which will secure eco-friendly environment and create harmless conditions. This system allows to completely avoid spilling the liquid, flowing out of the garbage, and getting it into the soil and exclude the spread of any infections. Waste sorting can significantly reduce the amount of waste sent to the landfill for burying, which in turn reduces the contamination of soil, groundwater and water bodies. Through waste sorting it is possible to reach less energy-intensive processing of solid waste and produce new kinds of products. Special attention will be focused on the necessity to separate different kinds of waste and placing it into the appropriate container.\n\nOverall objective: decreasing environmental risks in the cross-border region by way of improving solid waste management systems, ensuring effective waste separation and constructing at municipal institutions modern waste collection points with sealed containers.\nSpecific objectives: construction of waste collection points; education and popularisation of the need for the separation of solid waste; creation of the conditions for cost-effective recycling of waste materials.\nFinal beneficiaries: the entire population of participating regions, regardless of age and sex, whose living environment the project positively affects (Kohtla-Jarve about 35000 people, Slantsy about 30000 people, Pskov town about 200000 people).\nDirect target group: specialists on environmental issues of local administrations, employees of municipal institutions, specialists from waste management companies.\nIndirect target group: teachers, children, youth, elderly people, medical workers, whose attention will be drawn to the need of sorting waste and involving them into this process at their institutions, and who subsequently will continue this habit at their homes.\nActivities and results:\n*Waste collection points with different types of containers will be constructed.

There is an urgent need to strengthen and increase the competitiveness of the border areas, which are situated far from the capitals. The unemployment rate is rather high and the entrepreneurial culture is not well developed among craftsmen living in the border regions. There are many craftsmen in Võru and Pskov, who have the necessary skills to perform the traditional handicrafts, but who are lacking the facilities to develop their private businesses as successful start-ups, since there are no venues for exhibiting and selling the items of local craftsmanship.\nThe objectives of the project are to encourage and support business start-ups, which are using cultural heritage in their high-quality products. With project there will be established business incubator for creative industry in Võru town and Pskov Business Incubator. In newly established business incubators during the project there will be developed a list of professional services offered for incubants and measures will be worked out to keep elderly people involved in business and support silver economy. Võru business incubator also emphasizes on youngster. In order to preserve local cultural heritage, it is important to pass on the skills to the younger generations of craftsmen and to revive interest towards old traditions.

Some of the public houses are under the protection of the cultural heritage. Thus, several restrictions and special conditions must be followed while renovating the buildings. These restrictions make it more complicated to improve the energy efficiency of these buildings. High and unreasonable energy consumption is also problem with public houses built in Soviet period (1950-1990). At the same time, national, regional and local authorities´ have low awareness of modern and innovative solutions of energy-efficient housing, starting from the simplest solutions up to most innovative ones (Smart House technology, nearly-zero-energy building, building automation systems etc).  Approach:  The target group is the specialists of regional and municipal authorities in South- and East-Estonia and Pskov region, who are responsible for planning and implementation of investment projects targeted to improvement of energy efficiency of public buildings. Project activities are focused on renovation of existing public buildings, so they can meet (or at least are close to) the standards of nearly-zero-energy buildings. Improved energy efficiency of buildings can be achieved by implementing different kind of measures, but the comprehensive approach enables to achieve the best results in energy consumption of buildings. It includes: 1) the analysis of the energy consumption of the building and possibilities for savings; 2) reconstruction of structural parts of the buildings (facade,windows etc); 3)reconstruction of technical systems (automated heating, electricity, ventilation etc); 4) using local renewable energy production solutions for own consumption + storage; 5) changes in daily behaviour and habits of the building users. Both countries are in same opinion when it comes to promoting energy efficient living conditions. The national goals in both countries are improved housing energy performance level enabling to reduce energy intensity and costs. Local municipalities learn from the experience received from different type of pilot objects locating in both countries. The best examples encourage local authorities in whole programme area to invest to innovative solutions that seem expensive at first, but in longer term bring greater benefit and savings. Objective:  Main project objective is improved housing energy performance level in Estonia and Pskov region through introducing new technologies and solutions in order to encourage public sector to adopt a more environment-friendly level of behaviour. The objective will be achieved through: a) organizing awareness raising activities and training programme; b) introducing standard energy saving solutions and sample technical documentation; 3) introducing the results in energy efficiency achieved in pilot objects as practical showcases. Results and activities: 1) Increased awareness of public sector authorities, specialists and general public about most innovative energy saving possibilities and energy-efficient housing.
