Yeah I saw this too in Groningen, near the Oosterpoort. I was wondering what this was.

There's a QR code on each of these signs. In any case, if you want to know more:

https://next-generation-eu.europa.eu/index_en

It's basically a European organization that provides loans and grants to European initiatives. It seems to me a sort of World Bank, or international monetary fund, but just for Europe.

What explains the recent surge of advertising you've seen:

Since February 2024, many local campaigns have been taking place to show to citizens the positive impact that NextGenerationEU-funded projects have had on local communities.

Lets hope we see this more! We need more people aware of a pro EU movement that's growing

Saw something similar at many bus stops in France.
