This Open Call will enhance and maximize the impact of the SEACURE project and drive progress in reducing water and soil pollution throughout the Mediterranean and its Associated Regions.

Through the SEACURE Open Call 7 additional projects that promote the implementation of holistic strategies related to the prevention, minimization, reduction, and remediation of nutrient pollution will be funded. This Open Call addresses potential barriers, supports the development of large-scale demonstrators, and offers the SEACURE consortium the opportunity to extend innovative solutions worldwide.

The primary goal is to empower regions significantly affected by eutrophication to effectively manage biogeochemical cycles, particularly those of Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P). This will be achieved by leveraging and expanding the adoption of systemic innovative solutions developed within the project. This empowerment involves strengthening the capacity of the awarded ARs to implement these innovative approaches, supported by comprehensive technical assistance from SEACURE consortium partners.

SEACURE will accept applications(*) from individual organizations or consortia representing public authorities involved in local and regional land and/or wastewater management, including: municipal governments, regional authorities, provincial councils, counties, delegations or similar public bodies, metropolitan authorities or inter-municipal cooperation bodies, environmental agencies, water and sewerage authorities and other public authorities or agencies with proven responsibilities affecting the nutrient management.
