enICT

enICT (Education and Innovative Information and Communication Technologies) is a non‑profit organization founded in 2012 that promotes the integration of digital technologies into formal and informal learning environments. Headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, the network brings together educators, researchers, policymakers, and technology developers from across Europe and beyond. Its mission is to facilitate the adoption of open, interoperable, and inclusive ICT tools that enhance teaching, learning, and lifelong education.

The organization operates through a series of initiatives that include research projects, professional development programmes, and policy advocacy. enICT’s flagship project, the “Digital Learning Lab,” provides schools and community centres with hardware, open‑source software, and training resources to create blended learning spaces. In partnership with the European Commission, the network helps align its activities with the European Digital Education Action Plan and the EU’s broader goals for digital transformation.

enICT also maintains an online repository of case studies, best‑practice guides, and open educational resources, which are freely accessible to educators worldwide. Regular conferences and webinars are organized to facilitate knowledge exchange, and a peer‑reviewed journal publishes research on the pedagogical impact of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and learning analytics.

Funding for enICT comes from a mix of public grants, contributions from member institutions, and project‑specific sponsorships. The organization is governed by a board of directors elected by its membership, and its activities are guided by a set of principles emphasizing accessibility, data privacy, and the promotion of digital equity in education.
