BIOREM is co-financed by LIFE, the EU’s financial instrument supporting environmental and nature conservation projects throughout the EU, as well as in some candidate, acceding and neighbouring countries. Since 1992, LIFE has co-financed some 3506 projects, contributing approximately €2.5 billion to the protection of the environment.
The BIOREM project is being developed within the LIFE+ Environment Policy & Governance component. LIFE+ Environment Policy and Governance is one of the strands of the European Union’s main funding programme for the environment. It supports technological projects that offer significant environmental benefits. This part of LIFE+ also helps projects that improve the implementation of EU environmental legislation, that build the environmental policy knowledge base, and that develop environmental information sources through monitoring.
