We investigate an extension of 2D nonlinear gauge theory from the Poissonsigma model based on Lie algebroid to a model with additional two-form gaugefields. Dimensional reduction of 3D nonlinear gauge theory yields an example ofsuch a model, which provides a realization of Courant algebroid by 2D nonlineargauge theory. We see that the reduction of the base structure genericallyresults in a modification of the target (algebroid) structure.Comment: 20 pages, crucial references adde
