Rebuilding a better Ukraine via the New European Bauhaus (NEB) Academy

InnoRenew CoE is implementing the “Rebuilding a better Ukraine via the New European Bauhaus (NEB) Academy” project, supported by U-LEAD with Europe Programme, to define and create the conditions for the sustainable operation of a NEB Academy Hub(s) in Ukraine that can join the NEB Academy Alliance – a network of new NEB Academy Hubs that is organizing and developing the NEB Academy in Europe.

The NEB is a movement in Europe to engage citizens and construction sector professionals in defining and building a better built environment that is inclusive, sustainable, and beautiful. The NEB Academy is a developing system of training centres (hubs) that will create and deliver relevant trainings to a broad range of construction stakeholders including sector professionals, citizens, municipal workers, policy makers, creatives, and others who express interest. The NEB Academy Hub in Ukraine will transfer knowledge to and from the Academy to enrich its offerings and transfer best practices and state-of-the-art knowledge to Ukraine, with a special focus on supporting the rebuilding efforts.

  • Policy and legislation in Ukraine
