· Increase the development and uptake of existing or new low-carbon technologies in the sectors that have the highest potential for a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
· Realise the potential of the common natural and cultural assets to deliver innovative and sustainable growth
· Enhance and protect the coastal and transitional water ecosystems
The minimum requirement for a project to be eligible is for the partnership to have at least one English Partner and at least one French Partner, both based in the Programme Area.
