Who we are

Our association

The NET Association – Networking Education & Training ETS is a third sector association founded in 2001.

Through participation in national and European funding programmes, NET develops and implements projects that contribute to achieving the European Union’s priorities: citizens’ well-being, the fight against social exclusion and discrimination, sustainable economic development, and environmental protection.

Active throughout the country, the association promotes and manages funded project initiatives, collaborating with public and private entities and participating in national and international partnerships.

A broad network of transnational partners, present in numerous European countries, fosters international connections, the exchange of best practices, and helps accelerate the innovation and competitiveness of local systems.

Since February 2025, the association has been registered in the National Register of the Third Sector (RUNTS).
Registration guarantees transparency, institutional recognition, and access to the opportunities and tools available to third sector organizations, strengthening the association’s reliability with partners, institutions, and funders.
