On the International Day for Biological Diversity on 22 May 2014, the Commission launched a major new initiative to halt biodiversity loss and eradicate poverty in developing countries. The EU Biodiversity for Life (B4Life) flagship initiative is designed to help the poorest countries protect ecosystems, combat wildlife crime and develop green economies. B4Life will be financed initially from the EU Global Public Goods and Challenges (GPGC) thematic programme as well as from regional and national development cooperation envelopes, with an estimated budget of up to €800 million for 2014-2020. |
