NEB Toolbox
Curated methods, templates and tools for NEB-aligned projects
What is the NEB Toolbox?
The NEB Toolbox is the European Commission's collection of practical resources for putting the New European Bauhaus into action. It gathers methods, guides, templates and self-assessment instruments so that any team — from a neighbourhood collective to a city administration — can plan, deliver and evaluate projects that are Sustainable, Beautiful and Together.
On NEB RADAR (Beta) we mirror the spirit of the Toolbox with a curated set of tools tailored to neighbourhood-scale projects, plus the official 21-KPI NEB Self-Assessment.
Hosted on the European Commission's official New European Bauhaus portal (new-european-bauhaus.europa.eu).
