New European Bauhaus

NCP Brussels and Brussels International organise an information and networking session on funding opportunities offered by the New European Bauhaus (NEB).

The New European Bauhaus (NEB) is a policy and funding initiative that makes green transition in built environments enjoyable, attractive and convenient for all. In addition to creating a platform for experimentation and connection, it offers funding opportunities through the NEB Facility.

Anchored in the R&I programme Horizon Europe, The NEB Facility supports projects that revitalise neighbourhoods through design for sustainability and inclusion.

It will focus on three main themes:

• Sustainable transition, social inclusion and local democracy.

• Circular and regenerative approaches for the built environment.
• Innovative funding and new business models for the transformation of neighbourhoods.

Registration

Participation is free of charge, but registration is mandatory. Places are limited, “first come, first served” basis.
Register by 16 April 2025 via this link. Please note that we have reached the maximum capacity, and you will be on the waiting list.

These calls are aimed at public authorities, academics, neighbourhood stakeholders, civil society, cultural and creative sectors (cultural organisations, designers, artists…), the construction ecosystem (architects and engineers, material producers, urban planners, contractors, owners…)
