Environmental Research at the EPA

The EPA research programme for the period 2007-2013 is entitled Science, Technology, Research and Innovation for the Environment (STRIVE). The purpose of the programme is to protect and improve the natural environment by addressing key environmental management issues through the provision of world-class scientific knowledge generated through a vibrant, competitive programme of research developed supported and co-ordinated by EPA.

Following calls for proposals in 2011, EPA is pleased to confirm that funding has been awarded to support a number of research projects. Further information on each project is provided on the document "Successful EPA Research Projects awarded in 2011".
