MarLEN (Maritime Low Emission Network) is a partnership of European ministries and funding organizations responsible for funding RTD in maritime technologies from 9 European countries. The network includes representatives from national and regional public authorities competent for public maritime research programmes and support policies.

The objective of this initiative is to strengthen the European Research Area in waterborne research by coordinating and developing synergies between national and regional maritime research programmes and policies in line with the aims of the partnership Zero Emission Waterborne Transport (ZEWT). The activities will include exchange of information and knowledge among national programme owners and programme managers as well as the implementation of distinct joint activities.

This is the submission platform for lead proposals within the first call for projects in MarLEN.
