Gruppo Nazionale di Studio Nidi – Infanzia

The Gruppo Nazionale di Studio Nidi – Infanzia (GNNI) is an association that offers opportunities for meeting and discussion between people involved in early childhood education, in several places and in different professional contexts, around the themes of children’s life and social condition, early childhood care and education, quality and perspectives of the integrated education system.

GNNI was founded in 1980, on the initiative of Loris Malaguzzi, who was its president until his death in 1994, with the aim of setting up a network to coordinate, exchange, and encourage the experiences that were developing in the different areas of the country.
