Deadline: 20-Apr-22
The European Commission is inviting proposals for The New European Bauhaus – shaping a greener and fairer way of life in creative and inclusive societies through Architecture, Design, and Arts.
Scope
The New European Bauhaus (NEB) initiative was launched in the autumn 2020 by European Commission President von der Leyen to bring the European Green Deal to life in an attractive, innovative and human-centred way. It is a new cultural project for Europe to lead a whole systemic change with its own aesthetics, sustainability and inclusiveness. This is why it will become a co-creation space where architects, artists, students, engineers, designers, cultural and heritage professionals, and other population groups of society, such as for example persons with disabilities, children, young and older persons, will work together to translate the Green Deal objectives into tangible applications, inclusive and accessible experiences for citizens and stakeholders.
Funding Information
The check will normally be done for the coordinator if the requested grant amount is equal to or greater than EUR 500 000, except for:
- public bodies (entities established as a public body under national law, including local, regional or national authorities) or international organisations; and
- cases where the individual requested grant amount is not more than EUR 60 000 (lowvalue grant).
Expected Outcomes
Projects should contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:
- Create innovative architectural and design solutions that emphasise the use of new forms and materials in line with the European Green Deal objectives.
- Leverage the social function of architecture, arts and design, combining functionality and sustainability with aesthetics, arts and culture, with the aim of driving social inclusion and accessibility, as well as strengthening the contribution of culture to sustainability.
- Examine cultural transformations driving sustainability and explore new cooperation paths among relevant stakeholders, including cultural and creative industries[2], interested in designing a new European way of life in line with the New European Bauhaus.

To be eligible for funding, applicants must be established in one of the eligible countries, i.e.:
- the Member States of the European Union, including their outermost regions;
