Cascade funding (FSTP – Financial Support to Third Parties). The EIT Community New European Bauhaus, led by EIT Urban Mobility in collaboration with EIT Food and Climate KIC, supports local innovation, citizen engagement, entrepreneurship and place-based transformation across Europe. Through this open call, the EIT Community NEB aims to support two complementary types of local impact: Connect NEB is a mono-beneficiary programme that supports community-led initiatives to test new ideas, activate local communities, and experiment with participatory approaches, living labs and new forms of governance inspired by the New European Bauhaus. Co-create NEB is a multi-beneficiary programme that supports partnerships between communities, municipalities and other local actors to deliver visible, place-based transformation in public spaces. Proposals must be submitted by a consortium with 2 to 4 members, and at least one must be a city, a region, or an entity affiliated with a city or region.Both programmes, each with a maximum duration of 10 months, contribute to improving the quality of life of local communities and the environments of the neighbourhoods where they are implemented, taking into account the relevance of each specific local context and valuing the innovation capacity and creativity of each community.Despite these differences, proposals for both programmes must serve the purpose of achieving the three inseparable core values of the New European Bauhaus: Sustainable (from climate goals, to circularity, zero pollution, and biodiversity), Beautiful (quality of experience and style, beyond functionality) and Together ( from valuing diversity to equality for all, accessibility and affordability).This Call for Proposals is open to all legal entities established in Member States of the European Union, and/or in Third countries associated to Horizon Europe. Applications from the Regional Innovation Scheme (RIS) countries are encouraged.Applications must be submitted separately for each programme, as they are subject to different eligibility criteria, target different audiences. Applicants may apply to one or both programmes but can be eligible as the Lead Partner for only one programme.
