Facilitation of LIFE RESTORE4NATURE - Grant Agreement Process

The “LIFE RESTORE for MDD” project aims to restore and conserve riparian forests along the Mura, Drava and Danube rivers. As one of the largest individual projects funded in the LIFE Call in Europe, the project aims to improve the status of the priority habitat types 91E0* and 91F0 through restoration measures on water bodies and floodplains along a 700 km long river corridor. On behalf of WWF Austria, E.C.O. contributes its expertise in the conception, planning and application of international funding projects. E.C.O. coordinated the successful application in close cooperation with WWF Austria and 16 project partners in five countries. This ranges from the formulation of the general idea to the submission of the LIFE project in all its facets and the successful conclusion of the EU Grant Agreement process. This important project has been implemented since fall 2024.
