Programme Concerns

In developing the concept note and during the implementation of the programme, the Programme Operator shall seek to ensure synergies with the programme “Blue Growth Innovation and SMEs”.

Special concern shall be given to a) Circular Economy with particular relevance to the building sector; b) Portugal Living Labs for low carbon cities in Lisbon and Oporto; c) National Network of Biosphere Reserves.

The programme shall contain small grant scheme(s) targeting, among others, civil society including non-governmental organisations (NGOs).

Bilateral Ambitions

€100,000 shall be allocated to the programme from the fund for bilateral relations. This does not prevent the Joint Committee for Bilateral Funds from allocating additional funds to the programme.
