INVESTMENT AREA 5.1:
BIODIVERSITY, NATURE RECOVERY AND RESILIENCE
Prior to the funding call to the new PEACEPLUS Programme opening, the SEUPB is holding a pre-application support workshop under Investment Area (IA) 5.1 Biodiversity, Nature Recovery and Resilience on 29 March 2023.
The workshop is now at capacity and the waitlist oversubscribed - it will be recorded and the video alongside the support materials will be made available on our website and social channels within 7 days of the event.
The key objective of this IA is to ‘enhance nature protection and biodiversity and reduce pollution’, resulting in an increase in the surface area of selected habitats and habitats for species in improving condition.
The SEUPB anticipates that a funding call for this Investment Area will open in Summer of 2023. In advance of the funding call, this workshop will provide preliminary guidance to help potential applicants build their project, programme knowledge, and capacity so that they are best placed to make a quality application, with a strong focus on outcomes that meet programme targets and the overarching aim of Peace and Prosperity.
An indicative budget allocation has been set at €40 million for this Investment Area.
Investment Area 5.1 is targeted at organisations who are working in cross-border collaboration to facilitate the recovery of selected habitats and species across the Programme Area. It presents an opportunity to build upon INTERREG VA Programme by continuing to promote cross-border co-operation and facilitating the recovery of additional protected habitats and priority species.
PRIORITY AREAS
IA 5.1 - Priority Habitats and Species across the Programme Area
As part of this pre-development support the two jurisdictions have worked together to identify the areas, actions, and target species/populations which would benefit the most from Programme Support. These are based on need, on the policy priorities in the region, and on what we have learned from past Programmes. The priority list below provides specific populations and places where applicants should focus their attention in the development of project proposals and actions.
