Thematically, the foundation supports biodiversity protection, nature-based solutions, environmental research, and education in Denmark. Marine and fisheries initiatives are specifically listed as eligible adaptation sectors, alongside coastal areas and ecosystem restoration. Projects promoting nature restoration, habitat management, and environmental science fall within scope. Eligible activities include nature conservation projects, biodiversity research, environmental education, ecosystem restoration, and marine and fisheries-related initiatives. Blended finance (combining with other funding sources) is permitted. The geographic scope is all Danish regions and municipalities. Projects must be anchored in Denmark. International components are not mentioned. Eligible applicants include Danish organisations, companies, associations, cultural institutions, NGOs, local authorities, and — under certain conditions — private individuals. The foundation does not require consortium formation. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and processed at four annual board meetings; the expected response time is 4-5 months. Budget ranges from below EUR 50,000 to over EUR 1 million per project. Co-funding is permitted. No co-funding ratio requirement is mentioned.
