We have some exciting news from Brussels! The European Commission has just published its proposal for the next Erasmus+ programme, running from 2028 to 2034, and it’s set to be bigger, bolder, and easier to join than ever before. With a record budget of €40.8 billion, the new Erasmus+ aims to open even more doors for learners, teachers, and organisations. This proposal is putting a strong spotlight on green and digital skills, inclusion, and lifelong learning. Whether you’re writing your next KA1 project or planning to take part in mobility yourself, this proposal gives us a clear picture of what Erasmus+ will be all about in the future. This blog will show you how to prepare and make the most of it.
The programme will run on two main pillars. First pillar is Learning Mobility for All, offering opportunities for everyone from school pupils and adult learners to teachers, athletes, and volunteers (yes, DiscoverEU train adventures are here to stay!). Second is Capacity Building, supporting schools, universities, and organisations to innovate, cooperate, and shape policy. Volunteering will become an even bigger part of Erasmus+ as the European Solidarity Corps is fully integrated, along with a brand-new European Voluntary Humanitarian Aid Corps for young people ready to help in crises. Strategic scholarships will be available in high-demand areas like AI, green technologies, cybersecurity, healthcare, and digital innovation. There will also be more support for joint degrees and European University Alliances. Inclusion will remain at the heart of the programme, with simpler application processes and flat-rate grants. There will also be targeted support for rural areas, smaller organisations, and first-time applicants.
As we look ahead to the future of Erasmus+, one thing is clear: education is not only about knowledge and skills. It is also about shaping responsible, engaged citizens. In today’s world, teaching democracy, participation, and European values is more important than ever. That’s why we are proud to present our latest Erasmus+ teacher training course in Split:
This Erasmus+ course in Split offers a hands-on, practical approach to embedding citizenship education across different learning environments.
Through workshops, debates, role-play simulations, and collaborative projects, teachers will learn how to inspire active, responsible, and informed participation in democratic life.
The Erasmus+ Proposal 2028–2034 brings fresh opportunities for schools, teachers, learners, and organisations across Europe. With its strong focus on inclusion, green and digital skills, and lifelong learning, the programme is designed to make participation simpler and more impactful than ever. If you are planning your next Erasmus+ project, now is the perfect time to align your ideas with the new priorities. By taking action early, you can prepare for a smoother application process and create projects that meet the needs of tomorrow.
