NEB Academy opens €6 million funding calls

EIT Culture & Creativity has opened its first funding calls as an implementing partner of the New European Bauhaus (NEB) Academy, the learning and innovation infrastructure of the NEB. These two calls offer a total of €6 million to support circular fashion and skills development for the transformation of Europe’s lived environment. 

1.  The NEB Academy "Fashion Shift" call has a total budget of up to €2.5 million, with up to €500,000 available per project. It is designed for multi-actor consortia that include independent fashion brands and seek to develop and scale responsible business models across the European fashion value chain, including material sourcing, design, retail, circular services and end-of-life management.
2. The NEB Academy "Skills Infrastructure" call has a total budget of up to €3.5 million, with up to €600,000 per project. It seeks to support five trans-regional collaborations that build lifelong learning programmes rooted in local contexts, helping professionals, public bodies and educators develop the skills needed to transform the lived environment.

Selected projects are also set to join EIT Culture & Creativity’s European network and the wider New European Bauhaus community. More information is available at this website. Please note that there will be info sessions on these calls on 24 June, 8 July and 10 July.
