The new Erasmus+ programme for has launched

The European Commission has published a new General Call for Proposals for 2021, by which Erasmus +, as the largest program of the European Union for education, enters a new seven-year financial period.

Erasmus + programme has a budget of 26 billion euros, which is almost twice the amount of allocated funds compared to the previous Erasmus programme  (2014-2020).

The general goal of the Program is to support the educational, professional and personal development of people in the field of education, youth and sports through lifelong learning. The priorities are defined as: inclusion and diversity, digitalisation (digital transformation), participation in democratic life (strengthening of European identity) and preservation of the environment (introduction of “green” practices).
