Programme CZ02
“Biodiversity, Monitoring and Climate Change” was
a complex programme focused on three areas: biodiversity and ecosystem
services, environmental monitoring and integrated planning and control,
and adaptation to climate change. The main objective was to support
projects whose activities would contribute to halting the loss of biodiversity
in the Czech Republic.
Programme CZ02 contributed to those environmental areas with nearly
EUR 13.8 million in an open call for proposals and enabled the support of
35 projects and 23 additional activities that expanded the cooperation
with partners from donor states.

Standing behind the great results that have
been seen across the Czech Republic in the period 2014–2017 is also mutual
inspiration and cooperation with partner institutions from
Norway and Iceland.
In addition to the allocation for the open call, an amount of
EUR 2 million was
earmarked to finance projects in the so-called
Small Grant Scheme, supporting
further
nearly 50 projects of a smaller financial size, focused on action plans
for endangered species.
Within the three programme areas,
a number of various activities could be
implemented, from research projects focused on biodiversity loss or landscape
fragmentation, through activities raising awareness on biodiversity to projects
exploring climate change adaptation. Thanks to Programme CZ02, it was
possible to support projects whose results have, inter alia, a direct impact on
sectoral policies and legislation, and help prevent fragmentation of ecosystems.
