The Culture and Education Committee approved on Wednesday the next generation Erasmus+\u00a0<\/span>programme<\/span>, proposing a detailed set of measures to lift all economic, social, cultural barriers and allow more people to take part in different learning mobility schemes.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MEPs ask the European Commission and national Erasmus agencies to draft a European inclusion framework and develop national inclusion strategies. These measures could include adapting funding to the needs of participants and, particularly, financial support for mobility, adjusting monthly grants and a regular review of living and subsistence costs.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Special support for mobility for people with fewer opportunities should also be foreseen and include language training, administrative support or e-learning opportunities.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The new proposed \u201csmall-scale partnerships\u201d strand would allow\u00a0<\/span>organisations<\/span>\u00a0with little experience or small operational capacity to participate in the\u00a0<\/span>programme<\/span>, especially grassroots\u00a0<\/span>organisations<\/span>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/span>organisations<\/span>\u00a0working directly with disadvantaged people.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MEPs also re-allocate the budget to different elements in the\u00a0<\/span>programme<\/span>, offering pre-school and early education staff, young athletes and sport coaches the option to participate in mobility schemes. Vocational education exchanges, especially in border regions, are also\u00a0<\/span>prioritised<\/span>\u00a0in the new\u00a0<\/span>programme<\/span>, with its budget also increased in the approved text.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MEPs propose more synergies with other European funding\u00a0<\/span>programmes<\/span>, so that co-funding could be used either to complement grants, transport, living costs for disadvantaged learners being adjusted as needed or to finance new projects.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
