Since the launch of the campaign, grants have supported educational activities, awareness campaigns and public engagement initiatives across Europe and globally. These projects help bring Healthy Lungs for Life messages to local audiences in relevant, creative and impactful ways.

The programme particularly encourages activities that support children and young people, improve health equity and increase access to trusted lung health information.

The grants programme is currently closed and is expected to reopen in 2027.

Healthy Lungs for Life grants have supported activities across Europe and around the world, helping to bring lung health awareness into local communities through creative and accessible initiatives.

These projects demonstrate the global reach of the programme and the different ways organisations have adapted lung health themes to their local context. Activities have included school programmes, community events, workplace initiatives and public awareness campaigns.

The programme welcomes applications from organisations and groups involved in health promotion, education, patient support and community engagement, including patient organisations, schools, healthcare organisations, charities, community groups and healthcare professionals.

Collaborative and partnership applications are also encouraged where they strengthen reach, impact or community engagement.

Healthy Lungs for Life grants support community-led activities that raise awareness of lung health in accessible and engaging ways.

Previous projects have included school-based education sessions, community awareness events, physical activity initiatives, public campaigns and activities linked to health awareness days.

Activities can take place in schools, workplaces, healthcare environments or community settings and are adapted to local needs.

Funded projects help organisations raise awareness of lung health, engage communities and support prevention-focused messages through local action. They also become part of a wider international network, sharing learning and good practice across countries and settings.

The Healthy Lungs for Life grants programme is expected to reopen in 2027. Future funding rounds, eligibility criteria and application guidance will be published on this page once confirmed.

While the programme is closed, organisations are encouraged to explore previous projects to understand the types of activities supported and how they have been delivered in different communities.
