Opengela is a project driven by the Basque Government which looks to improve the quality of life in cities through urban regeneration. It consists in the creation of neighbourhood offices which, as a kind of one-stop-shop, will provide advice and support to the community through the whole process of renovation of their apartment buildings.

Who is it for?
The programme is for individuals and communities of homeowners who want to renovate their apartment buildings, it also looks to turn them into active participants in the whole renovation process and to accompany them from the start.
Pilot projects
In an initial phase, Opengela has set in motion two pilot projects in the neighbourhoods of Otxarkoaga (Bilbao) and Txonta (Eibar). The aim is to replicate this model in other Basque towns and in other parts of Europe.

The objective
The idea is to obtain neighbourhoods with a better quality of life for their communities, with better energy efficiency, with universal accessibility (elevators…) and the incorporation of basic systems of protection and safety against fires. Always putting the residents first, making them part of the process.
European support
The project will receive financial aid of 1.7 million Euros from the Horizon 2020 programme of the European Commission during the period 2019-2022.
