Nature and Biodiversity

The Nature and Biodiversity sub-programme aims to protect and restore Europe's nature and halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity. The sub-programme will thus continue to fund projects in the areas of biodiversity, habitats and species that contribute to the implementation of the EU Birds and Habitats Directives. Special emphasis is placed on the development and management of the Natura 2000 network and the Regulation on the prevention and management of the introduction and spread of invasive alien species, as well as providing support for the achievement of the objectives of the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2030, part of the EU Green Deal.
