Almost €35 million is being announced to support local climate action in our communities.
It's part of a joint initiative by the government and the EU to continue economic, environmental, and social change across the country.
The types of projects being considered for funding include "renewable energy solutions", "enhancing energy efficiency for public buildings", "transforming former landfill sites into tourism or recreational spaces" and "enhancing public amenities".
