Call status: UpcomingNEB Junction is a collaborative hub that collects, curates, and shares knowledge and results from the New European Bauhaus (NEB) initiative. It connects stakeholders, projects, and insights to support sustainable, inclusive, and beautiful transformation across Europe.
NEB Junction is currently implemented through a Horizon Europe CSA project, by a consortium led by NTNU – Norwegian University of Science and Technology, in cooperation with partners AIT, Ars Electronica, Climate KIC, DEMSOC, DOWEL Innovation, ERRIN and ICLEI.
NEB Junction is designed for the entire NEB Community, as well as those who are not yet involved with the New European Bauhaus. It targets public authorities, local communities, the construction sector, researchers, creatives, and anyone interested in shaping better living environments through NEB values and working principles.
The platform provides practical, validated insights from NEB projects, presented as "Knowledge Gems." These offer actionable examples, inspiration, and guidance to support real-world implementation.
NEB Junction brings together knowledge from diverse stakeholders and translates it into accessible insights and recommendations. It helps users understand what works, identify challenges, and apply NEB solutions in their own contexts.
At the same time it supports the development of the NEB by identifying gaps, gathering stakeholder input, and providing policy recommendations. It helps ensure that NEB solutions are widely adopted and adapted across regions and communities in Europe.
NEB Facility is a unique funding tool dedicated to supporting the New European Bauhaus initiative in the period 2025–2027. It is comprised of the Research and Innovation (R&I) and the Roll-out component.
The R&I component is structured under the Horizon Europe programme, with a budget of €120 million per year from 2025 to 2027. The Roll-out component aims to support innovative solutions for the built environment with a similar amount, at different scale and through different EU funding programmes.
