Each year one Member State takes over the Presidency in the Strategy. This means overall strategic guidance, facilitation of decision-making and coordination of the NC group with the support from the European Commission and the Baltic Strategy Point. The rotating presidency lasts for one year starting from July and ending in June.
The current Presidency holder in the EUSBSR National Coordinators Group is Latvia (July 2023 - June 2024).
