What is the New European Bauhaus Initiative and how is it connected to VET paths?

The New European Bauhaus initiative is a creative and interdisciplinary movement launched by the European Commission, aiming to foster sustainable, inclusive, and aesthetically appealing environments in the context of the European Green Deal. It seeks to bridge the gap between art, culture, and technology while promoting sustainability in design and construction.

In relation to vocational education and training (VET) paths, the initiative emphasizes the need for skills development in areas such as sustainable architecture, circular economy practices, and digital technologies. By integrating VET into the New European Bauhaus framework, the initiative aims to equip learners with the necessary competencies to meet the evolving demands of the green economy. This not only enhances career opportunities in emerging sectors but also contributes to the overall goal of creating more sustainable and livable spaces across Europe.
