Description

CINEA is organising EU LIFE Info Days 2026 to support potential applicants ahead of the launch of the new LIFE calls for proposals in April.

Over three days of online sessions, participants will gain insights into the four LIFE sub-programmes: nature and biodiversity, circular economy and quality of life, climate change mitigation and adaptation, and clean energy transition. The sessions will also present the priority topics for 2026 and provide guidance on how to develop a successful project proposal.

The event will be live-streamed, with opportunities to interact and ask questions in real time. In addition, participants can take part in networking activities, including bilateral meetings with other applicants and National Contact Points (NCPs), available from 28 April to 22 September 2026.

The LIFE Programme is the EU’s main funding instrument for environment and climate action, with a €5.4 billion budget for 2021-2027, supporting projects that contribute to Europe’s green transition.
