Project Ideas Search

The MSUO is now preparing our INTERREG - MSUO Maritime Safety Projects Fair, 5 and 6 June 2007, In Antwerp, Belgium. (event information) This event will show the results of MSUO during the Interreg III period and will provide a matchmaking opportunity for the Interreg IV period. In order to do this the MSUO has asked the Maritime Governance and Technology Consortium to send out a questionairre to see what kind of ideas organisation around Europe have. (more information here

Wednesday June 6, will be used for Matchmaking, the MSUO has decided to focus only on maritime safety during this event. This will be shown in the three workshops that we provide during the event. These workshops are the following

  • Workshop 1; Shipping Policy, marine spatial planning and sustainable management
  • Workshop 2; Risk Management and prevention
  • Workshop 3; Disaster and incident response

To give you the opportunity to start the matchmaking before the event, you can use the project search tool on this page to search by key-words to find a potential project idea in which you might want to participate. To show all ideas, click on the button 'view all ideas'

To help you, the MSUO has, together with the participating programme areas, developed infosheets. These infosheets will give you the info you need to know under which priority you should apply for potential maritime project ideas.

 

If you have any questions about the projects, do not hessitate to contact the MSUO

UPDATE!

During the conference three workshop were held as described above, the outcomes of these workshop are now available for everyone, please click here to download.
