The New European Bauhaus looks beyond the borders of the European Union to cities like Stavanger (Norway)
These will be spread across 11 EU countries and will serve to support the EU Missions
Last week, the European Commission announced its selection of 5 large-scale projects, which are meant to serve as “lighthouse demonstrators” in the integration of New European Bauhaus values to the wider public. The winners will split 25 million euros in grants, which are currently being negotiated to finalize the agreements.
The five shortlisted projects will receive funding of approximately €5 million each to implement their plans in 11 Member States (Belgium, Czechia, Germany, Denmark, Greece, Croatia, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, Slovenia, and Portugal), as well as in Norway and Turkey. They will deal with topics such as building renovation, circularity, arts, cultural heritage, education, smart cities, urban and rural regeneration and more.
The projects will contribute innovative ideas and solutions within two years' time, helping to point the way forward for other NEB actions. As they are spread across Europe, the projects will provide a diversity of results that can be adapted and replicated in similar activities and demonstrators in Europe and beyond, helping to inspire future initiatives.
Here is a description of the five projects:
The projects will also contribute to the EU Missions. The Missions share much in common with the NEB, with both initiatives aiming to tackle major challenges in health, climate and environment through closer engagement with citizens, and harnessing the power of research and innovation.
