"The Portugal 2020 funds offer the state, local government and companies the chance to work on nature conservation projects that add value to the economy and society, including jobs, through nature conservation options", Jorge Moreira da Silva said.


“I challenge [companies and NGOs] to take advantage of ‘Portugal 2020' and the support that exists to innovate in this area and implement pilot projects to protect nature and compensate for the damage that some companies have to ensure".
