The first yearly compilations of LIFE+ projects have now been published on the LIFE website. It contains useful information about all the projects receiving LIFE funding in the 2007 call for tender. This includes contact details for the project beneficiary, a summary of the project background and objectives, information about the project duration and budget, and a map of the project area. The 2007 LIFE+ Nature & Biodiversity compilation features 57 innovation projects in 21 Member States that have been awarded €93 million in total by the LIFE programme. LIFE+ Nature & Biodiversity projects improve the conservation status of endangered species and habitats. The second 2007 compilation features both LIFE+ Environment Policy & Governance and Information & Communications projects. LIFE is funding 72 Environment Policy & Governance projects in 19 Member States to the tune of €82 million. These are pilot projects that contribute to the development of innovative policy ideas, technologies, methods and instruments. The Information & Communications strand is new to LIFE+. It includes projects that disseminate information and raise the profile of environmental issues, or provide training and awareness-raising for the prevention of forest fires. In the 2007 round of funding, LIFE awarded some €8 million to 11 Information & Communications projects from seven Member States.
