ERASMUS + OPPORTUNITIES

Opportunities for cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices are designed to modernise and reinforce education, training, and youth systems. Organisations participating in these opportunities should benefit from new approaches to education and training, a more professional and capable professional environment within their organisation, and an increased capacity to work at an EU or international level. Strategic Partnerships are transnational projects designed to develop and share innovative practices and promote cooperation, peer learning, and exchanges of experiences in the fields of education, training, and youth.
