Erasmus+ (2014-2020), also called Erasmus Plus, is the new 14.7 billion
euro catch-all framework program for education, training, youth and
sport.
The new Erasmus+ programme combines all the EU's current schemes for
education, training, youth and sport, including the Lifelong Learning
Programme (Erasmus, Leonardo da Vinci, Comenius, Grundtvig), Youth in
Action and five international co-operation programmes (Erasmus Mundus,
Tempus, Alfa, Edulink and the programme for co-operation with
industrialised countries). The Erasmus+ regulation was signed on 11 December 2013.
Erasmus+ will provide opportunities for over 4 million Europeans to study, train, gain work experience and volunteer abroad.
Erasmus+ will support transnational partnerships
among Education, Training, and Youth institutions and organisations to
foster cooperation and bridge the worlds of Education and work in order
to tackle the skills gaps we are facing in Europe.
It will also support
national efforts to modernise Education, Training, and Youth systems. In
the field of Sport, there will be support for grassroots projects and
cross-border challenges such as combating match-fixing, doping, violence
and racism.
