Have Your Say on the New European Bauhaus Facility: Fill in Questionnaire

The European Commission is inviting all interested parties to contribute to the consultation on defining the content of the New European Bauhaus Facility.

The NEB Facility is a unique, multi-annual EU funding tool that aims to transform neighbourhoods through design for sustainability and inclusion. The consultation seeks to gather information on specific needs for development and transformation on the ground as well as the most cutting-edge ideas required for the comprehensive transformation of neighbourhoods for the better. This will help the Commission develop the roadmap that will guide the facility’s implementation in the 2025-27 period.

The NEB Facility, part of the Horizon Europe 2025-27 Strategic Plan, supports neighbourhood solutions with a two-component approach. The first component, Research and Innovation (R&I), receives about €120 million annually from Horizon Europe funds. The second component focuses on deployment, aiming for a similar budget through various EU programmes.
The facility’s R&I efforts focus on three areas:

green transformation, social inclusion, and local democracy;
circular and regenerative approaches for the built environment;
innovative funding and business models.

To scale NEB-inspired transformations, the roll-out component combines EU, public, and private funding to deploy innovative solutions, support education, re- and up-skilling, provide capacity-building, and more.

Please fill in the questionnaire. The questionnaire will be open till 17 September 2024.
