Application Checklist

Eligibility

Confirm organisation qualifies as locally anchored association or non-profit in Nordic sense
Confirm Nordic relevance of proposed project

Project Scope

Frame marine plastic removal as ecosystem restoration / biodiversity protection
Identify nature-based solution angle (clean coastlines to marine biodiversity)

Constraints

Extremely tight deadline — 8 April 2026 (25 days from scan)
Small budget likely insufficient for operational activities
Nature focus may exclude processing/production aspects of value chain

Historical Context

Recurring initiative of Nordic Council of Ministers. Biennial sub-grant calls. 2026-2027 is current round. Previous calls focused on pollinator corridors, rewilding, and nature restoration — plastic cleanup framing is uncommon but not unprecedented.
