The new EU programme for Education, Training, Youth, and Sport for 2014-2020, Erasmus+, was officially launched and its first Call for Proposals has been published.

The Erasmus+ programme aims to boost skills and employability, as well as modernising Education, Training, and Youth work.

Erasmus+ brings together seven existing EU programmes (including the Tempus programme) in the fields of Education, Training, and Youth; and for the first time will provide support for Sport. As an integrated programme, it offers more opportunities for international cooperation across the Education, Training, Youth, and Sport sectors.

As a Partner country, Israeli institutions can take part only in the actions detailed in the attached document.
