Erasmus + Today as a Driver of Cooperation and Mobility in Europe

Erasmus + today as a driver of cooperation and mobility in Europe

Erasmus + is the main European Union program for education training youth and sport. It runs from 2021 to 2027 with a budget of more than twenty-six billion euro. It supports learning mobility for individuals and cooperation among organizations across Europe. The program aims to strengthen skills inclusion innovation and international collaboration in all sectors of education and training.

Erasmus + works through three Key Actions.
Key Action One: supports mobility for learners and staff. This includes study periods abroad, internships, youth exchanges and training opportunities.
Key Action Two: supports cooperation among organizations and institutions. Partners create joint initiatives, design innovative approaches and share knowledge across borders.
Key Action Three: supports policy development and cooperation at a European level.

Alongside these actions there are Jean Monnet activities which promote understanding of the European Union and encourage excellence in teaching and research on European integration.

Why Erasmus + remains relevant

Erasmus plus has become a structural tool that shapes how Europe approaches learning and professional development. It helps reduce educational inequalities, supports inclusion and provides opportunities for people who may not otherwise access international mobility.

The program encourages innovation in educational methods digital readiness sustainability and social participation. When schools’ universities training centers NGOs and youth organizations work together through Erasmus plus they produce ideas and practices that hold long term value for their communities.

Where to begin

The Erasmus + Programme Guide is the essential reference point. It explains eligibility rules, financial conditions and procedures for each action. Applicants should consider whether they apply as an organization or through one. Most Erasmus + actions require organizations to submit proposals on behalf of their participants.

Studying previously funded projects can also provide guidance. They show how objectives were defined, how partnerships were built and what impact was achieved.

Once a relevant call is identified EUcalls can support consortium building partner outreach and proposal management.
