Life+ pre-announcement
The LIFE+ 2009 call for proposals will be published on 15 May. This programme supports the development and implementation of Community environmental policy and legislation relating to the 6th Environmental Action Programme and incorporates components relating to nature & biodiversity, policy & governance and information & communication. The upper value on his call is EUR250 million.
The 2009 applications package will be made available when the call is published. However, there are unlikely to be significant changes with respect to the 2008 call, so potential applicants can begin preparing their applications using last year's guidance.
A National Information Day will take place in Dublin on 29 May. This will be mainly aimed at newcomers to the programme who are considering preparing a proposal or at those who have been unsuccessful previously. Contact Vanina Dubois, lifeie@mwhglobal.com to secure a place.
Deadline for submitting proposals to the Department of Environment Heritage and Local Government: 15 September
