Today, the European Commission has opened the Erasmus+ 2026 call for proposals, offering new funding opportunities in education, training, youth and sport across Europe and beyond. With a budget of around € 5.2 billion for 2026, the programme continues to invest in skills development and citizenship education through cross-border mobility and cooperation projects.
Remaining faithful to its long-standing support for mobility and cooperation, in 2026 the Erasmus+ programme will support more partnerships and mobility in the school sector. This initiative will help organisations test and implement innovative teaching methods conducive to basic skills, supporting EU efforts in civic engagement, democratic participation, and promoting shared values.
The Erasmus+ 2026 call embraces the Union of Skills strategy, , which aims to enhance skills development for quality employment, promote lifelong learning, and help build resilience.
