Network of Experts on the Social dimension of Education and Training (NESET)

Latest

NESET was an international advisory network of experts working on the social dimension of education and training.

The social dimension of education refers to the potential of education and training systems to reduce poverty and enhance equity and social inclusion, laying foundations for the development of more prosperous and more cohesive European societies.

It was set up to contribute to the improvement of European-level policy development and cooperation in education and training in order to support and supplement the efforts of the Member States to improve and modernise their education systems.

Launched in 2019 and active until mid-2025, and coordinated by PPMI, NESET built on the activities undertaken by its predecessor networks NESET II (2015-2018), NESET (2011-2014), NESSE (2007-2010) and. Following the conclusion of their mandates in 2025, the EENEE and NESET networks have been merged into the new, single ENESET network, which continues to be coordinated by PPMI.
