Instruments for EUSDR support
1. Facility for direct support to EUSDR governance
Each of the eleven priority areas of the Danube Region Strategy
are managed by two Priority Area Coordinators (PACs). The aim of
this element of the priority is to provide a stable source to fund
activities of the PACs on a longer run.
2. Seed money/project development fund facility
This instrument is providing support to developers of strategic
projects in the thematic fields of the Strategy. Small scale financial
assistance would be available for EUSDR-relevant project ideas.
3. The EUSDR Strategy Point
It is an independent structure aiming to provide general and
specific support on EUSDR to the work and cooperation of EUSDR
stakeholders. It will be hosted by the representation of BadenWürttemberg in Brussels.
