Description
The funding initiative "Nature Conservation Funding Bremen" is aimed at non-profit organizations within the city of Bremen that actively implement projects and campaigns in the fields of environmental and nature conservation as well as energy efficiency and climate protection. This funding supports activities that raise environmental awareness and make a sustainable contribution to the preservation of biodiversity. The goal is to promote cooperation between professional engagement, voluntary work, and voluntary services in order to enable a future-oriented and environmentally sound development in the city of Bremen. Particular emphasis is placed on projects that have a direct connection to the city community and represent innovative approaches in information and environmental education.
Eligible for funding are projects whose measures are directly related to the protection of natural resources and the improvement of the ecological balance. This includes, for example, initiatives to promote sustainable mobility, organic farming, and resource-conserving consumption. The grants cover both personnel and material costs, while investment costs such as land acquisition, financing costs, or value-added tax are not considered. A prerequisite for funding is that the applicant is recognized as a non-profit institution or a non-profit association based in Bremen and that the project is implemented within a defined period of 24 months.
Efforts to establish an active informational, educational, or practical connection to the Bremen city community form a central basis for the funding decision. The guidelines require comprehensive proof of economic rationality as well as the effective use of the funds, ensuring that the resources deployed are always used purposefully and transparently. Evaluation criteria include, in addition to strengthening environmental awareness, concrete contributions to the preservation of nature and biodiversity. The initiative encourages the submission of innovative, practice-oriented projects that can serve as an impetus for sustainable development in Bremen. Through the combination of professional and voluntary engagement, a sustainable impetus for future environmental protection is to be given, and the educational landscape regarding environmental awareness is to be expanded.
