(15 March 2018) – Erasmus+ today adds an online version to its mobility actions, to link more students and young people from European countries and the Southern neighbourhood of the EU.
The European Commission has today launched Erasmus+ Virtual Exchange, a project to promote intercultural dialogue and improve the skills of at least 25,000 young people through digital learning tools over the next two years.
The project covers the 33 Erasmus+ programme countries and the Southern Mediterranean region covering Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria and Tunisia.
The online version of Erasmus+ will complement the traditional physical mobility programme and could in the future be extended to other regions of the world.
