The new project will be called "Bauhaus of the Seas Sails", since it will target cities close to water to offer them solutions to support them to achieve an environmentally sustainable, socially fair, and aesthetically appealing transition working closely together with the local communities. It will result in seven transformational demonstrators in different regions and aquatic ecosystems: in Portugal (estuary), Italy (lagoon and gulf), Sweden/Germany (strait / sea / river), and the Netherlands / Belgium (delta). All the transformational demonstrators must embrace the key principles of the NEB initiative, which involves architecture, design and culture as core resources for a sustainable society.
Eighteen Partners joined this project including local authorities, universities, and civil society organizations. The EU funding for this project will be formally confirmed after the signature of a grant agreement, for which procedures are ongoing.
