Recently, the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge has opened the call for grants from the Biodiversity Foundation for large transformative scientific-technical projects for the promotion of the bioeconomy and contribution to the ecological transition within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.
- Projects will be financed that include actions contributing to conserving ecosystems, their habitats and species; to reduce the use of raw materials or the increase in the use of by-products and other raw materials efficiently and sustainably, as well as to reverse biodiversity loss, including the fight against climate change.
- It has a total budget of 20 million euros, allocating a maximum of 2 M€ in grants per project, coming from the European Union’s Recovery and Resilience Mechanism.
- The deadline for submitting applications ends on January 3, 2022.
