Our latest actions
More Erasmus = More Europe
To reach all young people in Europe, we need five times the current Erasmus+ funding in the EU budget 2028-2034. We need to improve the programme to make it more accessible, efficient, and impactful in empowering young people and shaping a stronger future for our society.
