Blue Parks - Towards a coherent European network of strictly protected areas for restoring healthy and productive marine ecosystems

Funds research to map habitats and design a coherent EU network of strictly protected marine areas that also benefits fisheries and climate.

This is a Research and Innovation Action. A single grant worth EUR 4-5 million funds mapping, modelling and planning work — identifying and designing the protected-area network — rather than funding on-the-ground habitat restoration itself.

Each grant below is a distinct funding opportunity with its own eligibility, scope, and deliverables.
