In the context of support for the non-formal education system in Lao PDR, the Non-Formal Education Development Centre (NFEDC) is an important partner for DVV International. As a sub-structure of the Department for Non-Formal Education (DNFE) of the Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES), it is the task of the NFEDC to provide services such as consultancy, capacity building and resources to the various structure of the non-formal education system as well as to do further research on non-formal education topics.
In the project phase 2021-2023, DVV International aims at further strengthening NFEDC. The project objective related to NFEDC therefore reads: “The Non-Formal Education Development Centre (NFEDC) is recognised as the central provider of capacity building, research, material and resources for non-formal education and actively provides services to actors in the NFE system.”
