Background and further information:

This investment package aims to contribute towards improving the quality of life for European citizens in five areas: Nature, Water, Air, Waste and Climate Action. The investment covers 10 projects in Belgium, Denmark, France, Greece, Lithuania, Malta, Spain and Sweden.

The LIFE programme is the EU's funding instrument for the environment and climate action. It has been running since 1992 and has co-financed more than 4500 projects across the EU and in third countries, mobilising over €9 billion and contributing over €4 billion to the protection of the environment and climate.

The European Commission approved on 8 February 2018 an investment package of €98.2 million to support Europe's transition to more sustainable and low-carbon future under the LIFE programme for the Environment and Climate Action.
