ABOUT THE NEW ERASMUS+ PROGRAMME
Erasmus (European Region Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students) is a Community action programme that encourages university cooperation. Encouraging partnerships between European universities, it primarily facilitates the mobility of students and staff (lecturers and administrative staff). By improving administrative and pedagogical operations through innovation and the exchange of best practice, it is also a vehicle for the internationalisation of institutions.
The new Erasmus+ programme has a record budget of €26 billion for the period 2021-2027. More inclusive, more innovative and more environmentally friendly, it has the following main objectives:
Developing mobility in all its forms (physical, virtual, hybrid)
Making actions more accessible to all
Enhancing language and digital learning
Promoting European citizenship and democratisation
Promoting cooperation, innovation and excellence
Strengthening the links between training, research and innovation
Helping to create a European Higher Education Area by 2025.
It sets four priorities:
1. (Digital Erasmus) - Promoting digital transformation - Developing digital practices in teaching and mobility management, particularly through the European student card initiative
2. (Green Erasmus) - Promoting practices that respect the environment and sustainable development
3. (Inclusion) - Encouraging the participation of students and staff who have the fewest opportunities
4. (Civic engagement) - Promoting civic engagement among beneficiaries.
