EU funding instrument for the environment and climate action

The LIFE Programme is the EU’s funding instrument for environmental protection, climate action and the circular economy, supporting innovative and best-practice projects. It provides grants for initiatives aimed at reducing pollution and promoting sustainable resource use across key areas such as waste, water, air, noise, soil and chemicals. LIFE funds projects that drive greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction, waste management improvements, renewable energy adoption and energy efficiency enhancements.
