**Summary of the New European Bauhaus (NEB)** The New European Bauhaus (NEB) is a European Union initiative launched in 2021 to foster sustainable, inclusive, and beautiful solutions for living spaces. It aims to transform societies by combining sustainability, aesthetics, and inclusivity, focusing on three key interconnected transformations: places, environment, and perspectives. **Focus Areas:** - Sustainability (climate goals, circularity, zero pollution, biodiversity) - Aesthetics (quality of experience, style beyond functionality) - Inclusion (diversity, accessibility, affordability) **Financial Resources:** The NEB leverages various EU funding instruments, including the New European Bauhaus Facility, which supports projects that revitalize neighborhoods through sustainable and inclusive design. The facility's priorities for 2025-27 are currently under consultation. **Funding Criteria:** Projects must align with the NEB's core values and focus on transforming living spaces to make them more sustainable, inclusive, and aesthetically pleasing. Specific criteria include relevance to sustainability, inclusion, and aesthetics, as well as substantial outreach capacity and commitment to supporting the NEB initiative. **Recent Projects:** Recent activities include the launch of the NEB Academy to boost skills in sustainable construction, the second edition of the New European Bauhaus Festival & Prizes 2024, and the announcement of the New European Bauhaus Investment Guidelines to help investors align projects with the NEB's transformative vision. The NEB encourages participation from citizens, experts, businesses, and institutions to reimagine sustainable living in Europe and beyond, providing access to EU funding for projects that embody its values.
