Hasta el martes, 23 de septiembre de 2025 a las 17:00
The EU LIFE Programme is launching the 2025 Call for Proposals, and once again we want to help you take your green ideas to the next level. As the #ForOurPlanet campaign gets under way, there’s never been a better time to turn your vision into action! If you’ve got an idea for conserving nature, protecting the environment, taking climate action or transitioning Europe to clean energy, your project could be in for a share of the €600 million just announced for 2025.
The Calls will be presented at the EU LIFE info days, planned from 13 to 15 May 2025. See the LIFE
Who can apply?
Any legal entity based in the European Union or in countries associated to the LIFE Programme can apply.
LIFE is especially interested to support projects which can be replicated and scaled up elsewhere, particularly those demonstrating practical innovation, measurable impact and best practices. LIFE project applications can be submitted by a single organisation or by several entities working in collaboration with other European partners, but not by individuals; please check carefully the description of the funding topic you wish to apply to.
