About LIFE+
The LIFE+ Programme is the European Union's financial instrument supporting environmental policy for the period 2007 to 2013 and succeeds other LIFE environment programmes. Although other programmes exist that partly relate to the environment, LIFE is the only EU funding programme that is entirely devoted to improving the environmental wellbeing of the Community. LIFE+ is governed by Regulation 614/2007 of 23 May 2007.
The current LIFE+ programme contains three main strands, namely:
- LIFE+ Nature & Biodiversity
- LIFE+ Environmental Policy and Governance
- LIFE+ Information & Communication
