centres, research institutes, publishers, writers’ professional bodies
to public organisations formulating regional and cultural policy. Geographically
it covers a wide area reaching from the South Baltic Sea Region (Germany)
via the Baltic States and Finland all the way up to the North in the Barents
Sea Region.
