Long Description:
LIFE+ Nature and Biodiversity supports projects that contribute to the implementation of the EU's Birds and Habitats Directives, and that contribute to the
EU's goal of halting the loss of biodiverity. The maximum co-financing rate can be 75 percent, but is normally 50 percent.
LIFE+ Environment Policy and Governance supports technological projects that offer significant environmental benefits, for example process or efficiency
improvements. This part of LIFE+ also helps projects that improve the implementation of EU environmental legislation, that build the environmental policy
knowledge base, and that develop environmental information sources through monitoring (including forest monitoring). Projects can be co-financed up to
a level of 50 percent.
LIFE+ Information and Communication co-finances up to 50 percent projects that spread information about environmental issues, such as climate change
and conservation. This strand of LIFE+ can also support forest fire prevention awareness and training campaigns.
