Non-EU European countries' inclusion in Erasmus+
As youth organisations, we highly appreciate the Erasmus+ programme. However, currently, many countries in Europe that share these principles do not fully benefit from the opportunities offered by Erasmus+.

The future is Erasmus: more funding for Erasmus+
The mid-term review of the current Erasmus+ Programme (2021-2027) set to be published in July 2025, provides a critical opportunity to reflect on the programme’s successes and challenges while preparing for the next phase. In light of this, the European Youth Forum and its members must actively campaign for a significantly increased budget for Erasmus+ under the next MFF.

Promoting and supporting the work of the Council of Europe
The Council of Europe is celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2024, however it must be noted that the values of the Council of Europe are increasingly being questioned or restricted by member states. Young people expect a future in which they can invoke their rights, where being involved as a volunteer to support these values is possible, and trust in democratic institutions can grow. The Council of Europe must stand for this now and in the future.
