The selected projects, which are from 25 Member States, cover actions in the fields of nature conservation, environmental policy, climate change and information and communication on environmental issues. They represent a total investment of some €516.5 million, of which the EU will provide €268.4 million.
The Commission received 1 078 applications from the 27 EU Member States in response to its latest call for proposals, which closed in July 2011.
