2026 calls of the LIFE programme, structured in four sub-programmes: nature and biodiversity; circular economy and quality of life; climate change mitigation and adaptation; clean energy transition.

Full proposals for strategic projects are expected by 4 March 2027.

No sectoral exclusion. Agricultural and agri-industrial businesses may take part in projects on biodiversity, soil, efficient water use, circular economy and emission reduction, normally in partnership.
