The Baltic Smart Water Hub has been launched and developed with support from two international projects: IWAMA – Interactive Water Management and BSR WATER – Platform for Integrated Water Cooperation, both funded by the Interreg Baltic Sea Region Programme 2014–2020. Its upkeep beyond these projects is supported by the Union of the Baltic Cities Sustainable Cities Commission.

IWAMA project (March 2016 – April 2019, EUR 4.6 mln) aimed at improving wastewater management in the Baltic Sea Region by developing the capacity of wastewater treatment operators, increasing energy efficiency and advancing sludge handling.
BSR WATER platform (October 2018 – September 2021, EUR 1.1 mln) aims to enhance cross-sectoral cooperation in smart water management by providing a possibility for transnational experience exchange, and delivering comprehensive policy overview.
