The Netherlands Physical Society (Dutch: Nederlandse Natuurkundige Vereniging, NNV) is the professional society of physicists in the Netherlands and a member of the European Physical Society.[2][3] Established in 1921,[1] the goals of the society are to promote physics and to serve the interests of physicists in the Netherlands. Its main activities are publishing the Dutch physics journal Nederlands Tijdschrift voor Natuurkunde (NTvN), the organisation of an annual physics conference[4] and the co-development of the physics education curriculum in the Netherlands.[5]
