On 24 April 2025, the EU LIFE Programme launched the 2025 Calls for Proposals. The LIFE programme is the EU’s flagship funding instrument for environment and climate action. These calls represent a valuable opportunity for organisations working on environmental and climate projects to secure funding.

The LIFE Calls for Proposals 2025 are available on the Funding & Tender Opportunities portal and the deadline for application is 23 September 2025 for the single stages, while for the two-stages the concept note need to be submitted by 4 September 2025 and the full proposal by 5 March 2026.

For those seeking additional support and insights, the 2025 EU LIFE Info Days are scheduled to take place from 13 to 15 May. Learn more here.

The LIFE Calls are also available on ERRIN’s Project Development Tool. Please find below the direct links to access the calls. To express interest, an existing account on the ERRIN website is a preliminary condition. However, Brussels-representatives can also express interest on behalf of local actors without an account.
