1. General Provisions

Communication and Visibility Guidelines (hereinafter Guidelines) contains compulsory

requirements for Large Scale Projects (hereinafter LSPs), supported by the Estonia –

Latvia – Russia Cross Border Cooperation Programme within European Neighbourhood

and Partnership Instrument 2007 – 2013 (hereinafter Programme), in order to ensure

visibility of projects activities and results.

Six Large Scale Projects were shortlisted by the Joint Monitoring Committee of the

programme on 4 April 2011. The table with basic information about all projects and

indexes allocated is attached in the Annex A. These guidelines are based on the

Communication and Visibility Manual for EU External Actions, 2010 (hereinafter

Manual) published by the European Commission. The Manual is available to download

on the Europe Aid website at:

http://ec.europa.eu/europeaid/work/visibility/documents/communication_and_visibility

_manual_en.pdf.

As the Programme is co-financed from the European Neighbourhood and Partnership

Instrument (ENPI), and having received the funding from the Programme, LSPs must

acknowledge and promote this.

Additional financing has been made available from the Estonian State budget through

the Estonian Ministry of the Interior for Large Scale Projects involving partners from

Estonia and Russia, thus ELR-LSP – 1, 2, 3 and 6 (as in ANNEX A) must in addition

acknowledge and promote this following additional communication and visibility

requirements in accordance to these Guidelines.

Main objectives of the information and publicity activities at the LSPs supported by the

Programme are following:

• To highlight in a dynamic way that the LSP is supported by the Programme and

to promote cross-border cooperation and its results;

• To ensure transparency in the use of public funds assuring the wider public that

Programme co-financing has been put to good use.

Communication and visibility activities within the LSP have to be implemented in

accordance to the project Activity Package 2 – Information and Visibility, which is part

of the project Grant Application Form (a document, which was filled in when the LSP

was submitted).

Please note that:

If the publicity requirements are not observed or only partly observed, the

related costs are not eligible for Programme co-financing.

2. Logos

2.1 Programme Logo

The Programme logo is main visual element of the Programme and has to be used in

all communication activities performed by the beneficiaries and project partners.

The Programme logo consists of 3 integral elements:

the EU flag - main EU visual identity element,

visualised flags of the 3 participating countries – Estonia, Latvia, Russia,

text with explanations and the Programme slogan “United by borders”.

Page 4: COMMUNICATION AND VISIBILITY GUIDELINESestlatrus.eu/uploaded_files/LSP/6_JMC_Communication...3 1. General Provisions Communication and Visibility Guidelines (hereinafter Guidelines)

The Programme logo always shall be used as one united graphic element consisting

from all 3 parts described above. The Programme logo cannot be divided into separate

parts. The smallest allowed size for the Programme logo use is 40x25 mm (Annex 1,

Figure 1 and 2).

Only exception when the Programme logo can be used in its simplified version is in

cases if it is printed on the small items, and if the printed logo version is smaller than

40x25 mm. However, the minimal size of the simplified logo version is 20x8 mm

(Annex 1, Figure 3 and 4).

Use of the Programme logo is compulsory on all the communication materials and tools

(both hard copy and electronic), project documents and all outputs produced by the

LSP.

The Programme logo can be used in 2 versions:

- colourful (Annex 1, Figure 1 and 3),

- black & white (Annex 1, Figure 2 and 4).

The Programme logo preferably should be printed on a light background. Multicolour

backgrounds should be avoided, especially those involving colours clashing with the

Programme logo colours.
