LIFE, the Financial Instrument for the Environment, introduced in 1992, is one
of
the spearheads of the European Union's environmental policy. It co-finances
projects in three areas:
- LIFE-Nature works to conserve natural habitats and the wild fauna and
flora
of European Union interest, according to the Birds and Habitats directives, thus
supporting implementation of the European Union's nature conservation policy
and the Natura 2000 Network.
- LIFE-Environment aims to implement Community policy and
legislation on the
environment in the European Union and candidate countries. This approach
enables demonstration and development of new methods for the protection and
the
enhancement of the environment.
- LIFE-Third Countries concerns technical assistance activities for promoting
sustainable development in third countries. This component of the programme
supports the development of environmental management capacities, both for the
administrative partners outside the Union and for companies and NGOs in those
countries.
LIFE is open to all EU countries, some candidate countries (currently
Romania)
and some third countries bordering the Mediterranean and the Baltic Sea.
