Promotes sustainable, inclusive, and aesthetically pleasing living spaces.
The New European Bauhaus (NEB) is a creative and transdisciplinary movement that aims to bridge the world of science and technology with art and culture. It focuses on leveraging green and digital challenges to transform the built environment and associated lifestyles. The NEB initiative centers around three core values: sustainability, aesthetics, and inclusivity. It promotes a multi-level, participatory, and transdisciplinary approach to foster a growing movement that translates the European Green Deal into tangible, positive experiences for all Europeans. Key focus areas include reconnecting with nature, regaining a sense of community and belonging, prioritizing places and people that need them most, and fostering long-term, life cycle, and integrated thinking in the industrial ecosystem. Financial resources are mobilized through various EU funding instruments. For example, the EIT Community NEB Call for Proposals offers funding up to 45,000 EUR per project with a minimum co-funding rate of 25%. Recent projects and organizations that have been financed include those addressing challenges related to climate, urban mobility, food, and manufacturing, though specific examples are not provided in the available sources.
