The LIFE FITTING project, coordinated by LNEC and involving TRATAVE S.A. and the Catholic University of Porto, has been selected as a finalist for the 2026 LIFE Awards for its exceptional contribution to nature conservation, sustainability and environmental innovation. 

As well as competing in one of the three categories of the LIFE Awards – Nature and Biodiversity, Circular Economy and Quality of Life, and Climate Action – the project will also be eligible for the Citizens’ Award. This award is given to the LIFE project that receives the most public support in an online vote.

Voting will remain open until 6:00 p.m. on June 3, when all winners - including the winner of the Citizens’ Prize - will be announced at a ceremony to be held in Brussels during EU Green Week 2026.
