The Nederlandse Vereniging voor Veganisme (Dutch Association for Veganism) or NVV is the biggest vegan association of the Netherlands. We are also the main Dutch expertise centre on veganism. We stick up for the animals and the interests of our members.
We believe in a vegan world where the use of animals is no longer the standard; a world where people respect all sentient beings; a world where people not only realize that we do not need animal products or services to be healthy, but also act accordingly.
Inform, inspire and enthuse
There are approximately 150,000 vegans in the Netherlands (July 2020) and this number increases every day. Together, we can make a difference. But there is a lot more to accomplish. The NVV wants to inform, inspire and enthuse people with information on plant food and veganism. We do this in a variety of ways, for example:

Collaborations
World Vegan Alliance
Since August 2019, the NVV is a member of the Vegan World Alliance, alongside of The Vegan Society of Canada, The Vegan Society of Aotearoa New Zealand, Vegan Australia and Be Vegan (Belgium). With this international partnership, the national vegan associations want to cooperate more intensively to benefit the promotion of veganism and thus accelerate the transition to a vegan world.
Others
We are collaborating with various vegan partners, such as Bite Back, Vegan Runners Nederland, Plant Power & Animal Rights NL.
