Hello and Welcome!

Hello and welcome to our new website. We are excited and hope this format will support our ambition of sharing experiences of NVC in education around Europe more effectively. We would like this to be a place where you can read about our events, find material and ideas that can be of use when applying NVC in learning environments.
