The Commission has launched a new interactive map showing information on New European Bauhaus (NEB) projects and announced new funding in the area.
The New European Bauhaus dashboard is a dynamic interactive map showing information on New European Bauhaus (NEB) projects and key actors across Europe and beyond. The map will change as new data on funded NEB projects is included. On the dashboard you can see many entities and projects of the NEB community:
- NEB projects benefiting from EU funds
- Projects and ideas that have won NEB prizes
- NEB partners and friends
- NEB high-level roundtable members
The dashboard presents data in an intuitive and easy-to-use interface. It comprises two sections:
- ‘Dashboard overview’, illustrating NEB activities and members; and
- ‘Country fiches’, focusing on national NEB projects and community developments.
To help use the dashboard, the Commission has produced a user manual.
In a further update on NEB, the Commission has published its first NEB Progress Report, detailing the initiatives key activities and achievements since the adoption of the Communication on the New European Bauhaus in September 2021.
The Commission has also published ‘the NEB Compass’, an evaluation tool that helps understand to what extent a given project is embodying the NEB approach. It explains what the three NEB values, sustainability, inclusion, and beauty, mean in specific contexts; how they can be integrated and combined with the working principles of participation and transdisciplinary. Based on this Compass, more detailed assessment tools will be developed.
Finally, and to further support NEB projects and initiatives, the Commission has announced that more than €106 million will be allocated to NEB dedicated calls under the Horizon Europe Mission and Clusters in 2023 and 2024.
Background
The New European Bauhaus is a creative and interdisciplinary initiative that connects the European Green Deal to living spaces and experiences, focussing on three key areas:
- Enriching, inspired by art and culture, responding to needs beyond functionality;
- Sustainable, in harmony with nature, the environment, and our planet; and
- Inclusive, encouraging dialogue across cultures, disciplines, genders and ages.
