Erasmus+

Programme Overview

Erasmus+ is the European Union Programme in the fields of education, training, youth and sport for the period 2021-2027. It has a budget of €26.2 billion for all of Europe, to fund learning mobility and cooperation projects for Europeans of all ages and backgrounds.

The general objective of the Programme is to support, through lifelong learning, the educational, professional and personal development of people in education, training, youth and sport, in Europe and beyond, thereby contributing to sustainable growth, quality jobs and social cohesion, to driving innovation, and to strengthening European identity and active citizenship.

For more information read through the Erasmus+ Programme Guide.

To review upcoming calls and open applications please refer to Erasmus+ Open Calls.

All European Priorities in the 2023 Erasmus+ Call are all relevant to the national context and therefore the National Agency will accept proposals that address any of the priorities: Horizontal, Field-specific (For KA2 proposals) and also additional National priorities. More information can be found in the guidance section. 

In Malta, organisations can apply to EUPA for funding for decentralised actions; Key Action 1: Learning Mobility of Individuals and Key Action 2: Partnerships for Cooperation for organisations active in Adult Education, School Education, Vocational Education and Training, Higher Education, Youth and Sport.

Other aspects of the Erasmus+ Programme are managed centrally at European level by the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) located in Brussels. Here organisations can view other funding opportunities available at European level. Further information can be obtained directly from the EACEA website.
