LIFE programme publishes overview of urban environmental projects
27-10-2006

The European LIFE Programme published “LIFE in the City”, the latest edition in the LIFE-Focus series. The publication looks specifically at the urban environment. It presents 24 recent projects co-financed by the EC’s Financial Instrument for the Environment’s (LIFE).
The presented projects demonstrate innovative approaches that are technically viable, cost-effective and widely applicable. They cover the following issues: 
  • integrated environmental management; 
  • sustainable urban transport; 
  • climate change; 
  • nature and biodiversity; 
  • environment, health and the quality of life; 
  • the sustainable use of natural resources.
The experiences, lessons learnt and results presented in the publication are of interest to the many local actors across Europe who work daily to improve the environmental performance of their cities and the quality of life of their citizens.
Launched in 1992, LIFE is one of the spearheads of Community environment policy. LIFE cofinances environmental initiatives in the European Union and certain third countries. LIFE has supported over 160 initiatives on the urban environment since 1992.
