Innovative solutions for learning and sustainable development

A European cooperative developing tools, formats and collaborations for education and sustainability across 27 countries.

Scroll to follow the network

It starts in Germany, where blinc was founded as a European cooperative in 2005 — and where most of our project coordination still sits today.

From there the network runs east into Poland and down through Bulgaria, then west across the Mediterranean to Italy.

The last leg turns north to France before dropping to Spain — six countries, one working partnership, and a shared set of tools and formats built between them.

The people

A small cooperative, a wide network

blinc is run as a cooperative — the people who do the work own it. Around that core sits a network of researchers, trainers and partner organisations we’ve been building since 2005.
