Background information
The New European Bauhaus is a policy and funding initiative launched by the European Commission that makes green transition in built environments and beyond enjoyable, attractive and convenient for all. The initiative promotes solutions that are not only sustainable, but also inclusive and beautiful, while respecting the diversity of places, traditions, and cultures in Europe and beyond.
In March 2025, the European Commission published the NEB Facility Roadmap, outlining the implementation of the NEB Facility from 2025 to 2027.
The NEB Facility aims to revitalise neighbourhoods through design for sustainability and inclusion. As a multi-annual funding tool from 2025 to 2027, the NEB Facility is anchored in the EU’s Research and Innovation programme Horizon Europe. It is financed through this programme as well as other programmes and funds from the EU budget.
