It’s already October, and this month we deliver to you another Success Story from the South Baltic Programme! This time we wish to inspire you by presenting the Reviving Baltic Resilience project!

 

 

Project title

RBR – Reviving Baltic Resilience.

The main goal

The main objective of the project is to highlight the proactive approach when working with environmental projects by showcasing successful proactive methods and technologies to prevent hazardous and unwanted particles from reaching the Baltic Sea and at the same time to disseminate this knowledge to the South Baltic region by having a cross-border approach.

The main outputs of the project will be 4 different pilot cases (Less particulates emission from the diesel engine (Poland), Landfill leachate cleaning (Sweden), Ecopile phytoremediation plant (Sweden) and Marine litter disposal (Lithuania)) in all participating countries as well as a South Baltic Proactive Resilience institute/cluster. The purpose of this is to both show the approach/technologies in practice, but at the same time also to certify the cross-border knowledge exchange and durability of the method and pilot cases after the project has ended as well. The approach of the project is a 3-step process that includes technical analysis of the most optimal proactive technologies/solutions for each pilot case, the implementation of pilot cases and the evaluation of installed solutions from a technical, social and economic perspective.

Target groups of the project

The main target group is the municipalities in the region as well as their municipal companies and regional authorities that can implement similar solutions and promote the proactive prevention approach of RBR. As well, public stakeholders that would like to learn more about proactive prevention solutions and companies that can provide green technologies for the installations. The main target groups will be able to take part in the pilot cases created in the project through the institute/cluster, but also to initiate new ventures focusing on proactiveness.
