Project info

Our Nordplus Junior project Our Baltic Sea will enhance intercultural understanding and cooperation in the Baltic Sea region. The participating upper secondary schools will collaborate with other schools, associations and universities in the Baltic Sea region.

We will organize various online and onsite activities, joint theme days, camps and events, as well as interdisciplinary and broad-based study modules together.

The project will increase awareness of environmental problems in the Baltic Sea region. Knowledge of the nature, culture, history, society, economy, and political situation of the Baltic Sea region will increase. The project work will inspire schools to implement teaching in line with the 2030 Agenda goals and to develop the schools’ operating culture into a more responsible one.
