The collaboration conducted in Nordic Bauhaus will continue in 2025 in the context of the New European Bauhaus Academy which was inaugurated in Into the Woods event organized by Nordic Carbon Neutral Bauhaus.

The NEB Academy is a key initiative by the European Commission aimed at accelerating the upskilling and reskilling of professionals in the construction industry. It is building a network of training hubs across Europe to leverage regional expertise and provide access to cutting-edge training methods and educational resources focused on sustainability, circularity, and bio-based materials.

The academy’s mission is to equip the construction sector with the skills to achieve carbon neutrality while fostering a sustainable, inclusive, and aesthetically pleasing transformation of the built environment.

The NEB Academy Hubs that were launched in 2024, involve 14 organizations across 11 countries. Among these, the NEBA North Hub has been established by the Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), Aalto University, and the Estonian Academy of Arts.

NEBA North Hub will focus on lifelong learning in sustainable building, offering, for example, training packages on timber construction and training connecting circular construction to social sustainability and inclusion.
