Better Together - 10 Years of the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region

Page 36

HAVE WE DELIVERED?

POLICY AREA SAFE The Baltic Sea is an important transportation route for the region. There are over 2000 ships travelling through this area at any given moment and the traffic volumes are expected to increase. To ensure safe and secure shipping in the Baltic Sea, cooperation and exchange of knowledge are needed as no single country has the capacity to face all the challenges alone. For this purpose, the EUSBSR Policy Area on Maritime Safety and Security (PA Safe) has been established with the aim to make the Baltic Sea a leading region for safe and secure shipping. Based on the feedback from the PA Safe member states and stakeholders, the cooperation has reached a mature state. PA Safe and its flagships are working together to implement the EUSBSR and the work is following the principle of continuity, as new projects are established based on the outcomes of the previous ones.
