LIFE programme is the EU's funding instrument for the environment and climate action which has co-financed thousands of projects across the EU and in third countries. The website of this programme provides a wealth of information including tourism funding criteria, programme description, and examples of supported projects. The primary objective of this funding is endorsing the circular economy, enhancing energy efficiency, implementing renewable energy initiatives, and promoting climate neutrality. The projects that support these measures could potentially qualify for funding.
