Cooperation projects

Erasmus+ increases the support for projects that foster cooperation and exchange of practices, allowing key actors to make better use of new
technologies, develop innovative teaching, training and learning methods, promote non-formal learning and develop common tools and
activities.

In cooperation projects and policy development activities, organisations gain experience in international cooperation, strengthen their
capacities, produce innovative approaches, exchange good practices and network.

Through these actions, Erasmus+ plays an important role in strengthening resilience and supporting recovery and innovation in the fields of
education, training, youth and sport.

Cooperation projects fall under Key Action 2 - Cooperation among organisations and institutions.

 About Erasmus+

About 10 million individuals, including students, learners, professors, teachers and trainers in all sectors, are expected to participate in mobility
activities abroad during the course of the programme.

Through the unique experience of living, studying, training or travelling abroad, participants gain self-confidence and soft skills, discover
different cultures and build networks of interpersonal and professional relationships with people from other countries.

This fosters their employability and active participation in society and contributes to greater social inclusion and a strengthened European
identity.
