he Erasmus+ Virtual Exchanges (EVE) 2024 call was opened for submission on 5 December 2023 on the Funding & Tender Opportunities Portal (FTOP). Please refer to Erasmus+ Programme Guide 2024 for the call deadline and further information.
Virtual exchanges in higher education and youth are online people-to-people activities that promote intercultural dialogue and soft skills’ development. They make it possible for every young person to access high-quality international and cross-cultural education (both formal and non-formal) without physical mobility. While virtual discussions or training do not fully replace the benefits of physical mobility, participants in virtual exchanges can still reap a number of the benefits of the international educational experience.
Virtual exchanges take place in small groups and are always moderated by a trained facilitator. They should be easily integrated into youth (non-formal education) projects or higher education courses. Virtual exchanges can draw participants from both sectors, even if, depending on specific projects, they could involve participants from either only one of them or from both.
All projects under this call will involve organisations and participants coming from both EU Member States and third countries associated to the Programme, and third countries not associated to the Programme in eligible regions (i.e. Western Balkans, Neighbourhood East, South-Mediterranean countries and Sub-Saharan Africa). You can find a list of eligible countries in the Erasmus+ Programme Guide.
