Erasmus+ Youth Mobility: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how young people can access funding for international workshops, training, and exchanges through the Erasmus+ program.
Erasmus+ Youth Mobility provides funding to help young people participate in international workshops, training sessions, and cultural exchanges.
Who it's for
This scheme is designed for young people who want to expand their horizons through international experience. To qualify, you must be between the ages of 13 and 30. This wide age range allows for a variety of different learning experiences, ranging from youth-led activities to more structured professional or skill-based training.
What you get
The primary benefit is financial support to help you participate in international activities. This funding is intended to cover the costs associated with attending workshops, participating in cultural exchanges, and engaging in specialized training sessions abroad. These opportunities are designed to help you gain new skills and build networks through hands-on, international engagement.
What it costs you
While the program provides funding, it is not a direct individual application process. You are responsible for finding a sending organization that can act as your official representative. This organization will manage the logistics of your involvement and ensure you are properly connected to the program's resources.
The catch to know
You must be aware of geographic restrictions regarding project availability. Most available projects are limited to participants coming from specific partner countries. Because not every country is included in every project, it is vital to confirm that your home country is recognized as a partner before you begin your preparations.
How to apply
- Research the various types of workshops, training, and exchanges available through the program.
- Identify and connect with a sending organization that can support your specific training or exchange goals.
- Work with your organization to complete the necessary registration and paperwork required for your specific project.
- Access more information and explore available opportunities via the official portal: https://erasmus-plus.ec.europa.eu
