New European Bauhaus

About this programme

The New European Bauhaus is a creative and interdisciplinary initiative that connects the European Green Deal to our living spaces and experiences.

The New European Bauhaus initiative calls on all of us to imagine and build together a sustainable and inclusive future that is beautiful for our eyes, minds, and souls. Beautiful are the places, practices, and experiences that are:

  • Enriching, inspired by art and culture, responding to needs beyond functionality.
  • Sustainable, in harmony with nature, the environment, and our planet. 
  • Inclusive, encouraging a dialogue across cultures, disciplines, genders and ages. 

This initiative also wants to create a new community and movement in the European Union by bringing citizens, experts, businesses, and institutions together to reimagine sustainable living in Europe and beyond.

From 2025 onwards the New European Bauhaus is set to have its first-ever multiannual funding tool, the New European Bauhaus Facility, that aims to revitalise neighbourhoods through design for sustainability and inclusion. It is a cross-cutting tool that combines different funding instruments of the Commission and covers the full cycle of implementation of solutions – from research and innovation to deployment – through its two components: 

  • A Research & Innovation component, anchored in Horizon Europe, will cover actions from research to testing and demonstration, with a yearly indicative budget of EUR 120 million.
  • A Roll-out component, building on the support to the New European Bauhaus already gathered from other eight EU programmes, will deploy solutions for the built environment, aiming to increase their impact on the ground. The Roll-out component aims to match the budget ambition of the R&I component through investments across various EU programmes over the next 3 years (2025-2027).

Miricle - Mine Risk Clearance for Europe

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
