LIFE Programme | Info Days

The LIFE Programme is the EU’s funding instrument for the environment and climate action. Established in 1992, it has co-financed thousands of projects. The LIFE Programme 2021-2027 is managed by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) and has a budget of €5.4 billion. It is divided into four sub-programmes:

• Nature and Biodiversity
• Circular Economy and Quality of Life
• Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation
• Clean Energy Transition

All LIFE 2025 call for proposals are expected to be published on the Funding & Tenders portal on 24 April.

Virtual Meetings

A matchmaking event is a fast and easy way to meet potential cooperation partners and explore future collaborations. Opportunities for networking through virtual one-on-one bilateral meetings between potential applicants and with National Contact Points (NCPs) representatives will be available from 13 May to 30 September 2025.

How does it work?

• Send, receive, and confirm 1:1 meeting requests between potential applicants and/or with NCP representatives.
• Confirmed meetings will be scheduled from 13 May 2025 (3:30 AM) to 30 September 2025 (6:00 PM) based on participants' preferences.
• Note: Meetings will be conducted virtually via video call, provided by the platform.
