The Nordic Council of Ministers’ Fisheries Cooperation invites applications for projects on fisheries and aquaculture within the themes:

• Coexistence and spatial planning
• Ecosystem-based marine management and stock recovery

The Nordic Council of Ministers’ Fisheries Cooperation works to promote greener, more competitive and more resilient fisheries and aquaculture in the Nordic region. We invite proposals for Nordic cooperation projects that concern the Nordic region, and they may also be in collaboration with partners outside the Nordic region.

We invite management and research-based projects that contribute to knowledge building, knowledge dissemination or network creation with significant Nordic benefit and with an ambitious communication strategy.

The budget for the autumn 2026 call is 3 mio. DKK.

Projects can apply for funding up to 900.000 DKK. The goal is to support between 4-7 projects.

The application deadline is 2 October, 2026.
