We are now welcoming a new year of academic cooperation with our 84 Member Universities. For us, 2020 is a year for developing the Baltic University Programme with a focus on strengthening our support to research and researchers. A part of this, is the upcoming BUP Symposium 2020, entitled “Research and Innovation for a Sustainable Baltic Sea Region”.  We invite researchers from different disciplines with an interest in the Baltic Sea Region as an empirical field, to present their research. This is also an opportunity to discuss matters related to Sustainable Development in a Baltic Sea Region context. We especially welcome presentations of research having an inter-/multidisciplinary approach. Our hope is that the symposium will lead to more visibility and cooperation among researchers regarding exchange, mobility, common projects and successful publication.

Since 1991 The Baltic University Programme (BUP) has worked to find novel ways of interaction and cooperation among universities by promoting openness, internationalization and mobility. Our main aim is to support the build of strong regional educational and research communities. The Programme is committed to gain and disseminate knowledge in the fields of sustainable development, environmental protection, nature resources, democracy and Education for Sustainable Development (ESD). We are a member organization, with 84 Member Universities, most of them situated in the drainage area of the Baltic Sea.
