We would like to thank the Nordic Council of Ministers for funding the pre-project.
Upcoming Projects & Events
At the conference The Future of Bildung in the Nordics, we concluded that we should indeed establish a Nordic Bildung Network and that we should work towards four things this coming year:
September 2025
A series of Nordic Bildung Network planning meetings
We will bring together bildung professionals from across the Nordics at creative meetings in at least 3 of the Nordic countries, depending on geography, time, and resources. The aim is to organize a Nordic Bildung Week in September 2026 for the general public.
Spring 2026
A second conference at Nordiska Folkhögskolan
The March 6-7, 2025, conference, The Future of Bildung in the Nordics, was a success and we are looking forward to bringing even more Nordic bildung professionals together next time.

September 2026
A Nordic Bildung Week
Finland has had great success with their Year of Sivistys / The Bildung Year, with self-organized sivistys / bildung events across Finland. Now the Nordic Bildung Network would like to work towards a public bildung week across the Nordics.
A Nordic Bildung Network “Embassy”
It would be great to have a meeting place for further Nordic collaboration around bildung, and we will start addressing this…
Nordic Bildung Network is hosted by Nordic Bildung
