The Atlantic Education Committee (AOC) develops activities for secondary education within the framework of the aims of the Netherlands Atlantic Association. The Education Committee promotes interest in security-related issues by organising meetings and publishing educational material.
Activities organised by the Education Committee include an annual education conference in February, and two regional seminars (in April and November). The Education Committee also organises study trips abroad for secondary school teachers.
Under the auspices of the Atlantic Education Committee, the Netherlands Atlantic Association regularly issues educational publications. In so-called ‘web sheets’, background information about topical international developments is given. Questions and assignments are also part of the web sheets.
The activities and publications of the Atlantic Education Committee are mainly aimed at Dutch secondary school teachers and pupils. However, the Committee occasionally cooperates in international projects such as the Aliante project and education projects of the Atlantic Treaty Association.
