EU LIFE info days 2026

The 2026 LIFE Calls for proposals are now published.The #EULIFE26 info days, organised by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) from 28 to 30 April, aimed to inform and support potential applicants. Dedicated information sessions provided insights into the four LIFE sub-programmes, highlighted the Calls' priority topics for 2026 and gave advice on how to prepare a good proposal for your project. The info days were live-streamed and the questions from the audience were answered live via slido.com. The sessions were recorded and recordings will be made available soon.
