BONUS FOR THE BALTIC SEA SCIENCE - NETWORK OF FUNDING AGENCIES
On behalf of BONUS consortium:
Andris AndrushaitisBONUS ERA-NET National Assistant Coordinator
GEF/ICES Baltic Regional Project LME Assistant Coordinator
Why the Baltic?
• 14 states in the drainage area• EU internal sea – 90 %• long history of co-operation in culture, economy, trading etc.• common environmental problems
• algal blooms• toxic substances• overfishing etc.
• long history of research co-operation
• ICES• joint international agreements
• HELCOM (environment)• IBSFC (fisheries)
• EU Water Framework Directive• Marine Research in ERA
• CREST• ESFRI (infrastructure)

Objective
• to form a network and partnership of key agencies funding research with the aim to deepen the understanding of conditions for science-based management of environmental issues in the Baltic Sea
The aim is to gradually and systematically create conditions for a joint Baltic Sea research programme including
• programme management
• evaluation schemes
• infrastructure
• administration and legal issues
• postgraduate training
Time frame: 2004-2007

Added value created by BONUS
• new collaboration between funding organisations
• directs research to meet the needs arising from the society –
Environmental problems of the Baltic Sea
• integrates research funding with environmental policy → complements the
work done by the Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission,
International Baltic Sea Fisheries Commission
• ensures high quality of research
• encourages multinational research cooperation
• funds from the EU 7th Framework Programme
– ERA-NET Plus
– Article 169
The problem of a ’Common Pot’
• the goal of the ERA-NET scheme is the opening of national programmes
• the Commission is both pushing and attracting the Member States to go towards a common pot
– ...”the more open your programme is, the more the Commission will support…
– ...up to 50 % topping of your own research funds allocation if the programme is open…. otherwise some 10 % only….
• most of the BONUS partners have legal and administrative barriers which prevent the common pot
• BONUS has to find means to take the advantage of all the flexibility that exists
