Kunskapsförbundet Väst

Kunskapsförbundet Väst is a municipal alliance that was formed in 2013. The members are Trollhättans Stad and Vänersborgs Kommun.
The alliance works to develop and strengthen the non-compulsory schooltypes in both Trollhättan and Vänersborg.

A municipal alliance is a form of  cooperation between two or more municipalities. The cooperating municipalities are members in the alliance.

The alliance is funded through the debiting of its members, but the municipal alliance is a legal entity in its own right which is the responsible authority for the organization with its own budget and financial accounts.
