BVN is an international Dutch-language TV channel run by NPO, the public broadcasters of the Netherlands. It shows Dutch-language programming to international audiences, much like TV5Monde does with French programming. It was also formely operated by the Flanders (Dutch-Speaking Belgium) public broadcaster VRT until 2021 when it announced that VRT will end funding to BVN, making it a fully Dutch-funded service.
