Description
1) Objective
The 4 themes of the call are:
- Understand marine pollution and fight it at the origin
- Protect biodiversity and restore degraded marine ecosystems
- Strengthen the resilience of marine ecosystems and the peoples who depend on them in the face of climate change
- Improve our knowledge of the ocean system
2) Eligibility
Only non-profit organizations (NGOs, universities, research institutes) can apply and receive funding. However, the project may involve collaboration with private for-profit actors (company, start-ups…). Applicants must clearly set out their co-financing opportunities in their budget, as well as a minimum operating budget in the event that Pure Ocean cannot grant the full amount requested.
3) Location
Actions can take place in various countries worldwide.
4) Budget
The selected projects will receive up to €40,000/year (average €25,000/year), for a period of one to two years, at the discretion of the Scientific Committee. A two-year project can therefore receive a maximum of €80,000, and the support of certain projects can be renewed.
5) Application
Closing of the call for projects is 1 October 2025. Applications are submitted online.
