VNB: Networking for Education

Professional further education comprises much more than just the simple transfer of knowledge. It is equally important to encourage the individual, social and political commitment of learners.

The VNB (Association of Education Initiatives in Lower Saxony)  is an officially acknowledged state-wide adult and youth education institution, and an umbrella organisation with a network of more than 200 education partners. Major topics in our educational work are of public, social and political interest, such as migration and integration, sustainable development, family and intergenerational education, gender and LGBT*I education, global learning, and many more, implemented on regional, national and transnational level.

We has a special interest in developing innovative initiatives for a diverse and inclusive education, addressing young and adult learners as well as staff members in adult and vocational education. The VNB promotes diversity as a fundamental approach to equal opportunities for all.

The VNB has long-term experience in cooperating and coordinating transnational projects in the framework of the ERASMUS+ Programme, Lifelong Learning Programme (GRUNDTVIG, LEONARDO DA VINCI), European Social Fund (ESF), Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF) and many more.
