The new “Erasmus+” programme for the 2021-2027 period will bring learning and mobility opportunities to 12 million people, in comparison to 4 million in the current programme, and reach out to people from all social backgrounds. It will also facilitate the participation of small scale and grassroots organisations and people with fewer opportunities, including people with disabilities and migrants, as well as EU citizens living in remote areas. The inclusiveness of the programme is also strengthened by the provisions on virtual learning and measures such as language support, preparatory visits, training and virtual cooperation for people who are unable to participate in learning mobility in the field of education and training, youth and sport. The new programme will give more attention to study fields such as renewable energy, climate change, environmental engineering, robotics, artificial intelligence and design. It will contribute to the fight against youth unemployment by giving young people the opportunity to increase their knowledge and skills through experiences abroad and facilitating the transition from education to work. The budget for the period of 21/27 increased significantly compared to €15 billion in the previous seven-year budget cycle and is set for 30 billion. €25.9 billion is designated for education and training, €3.1 billion for youth and €550 million for sport. The main actions areꓽ

Key Action 3 – Support for Policy Reform (Youth Structured Dialogue).

 

The programme spending for 2021 has been set at €2.89 billion. It will be a year of opportunities, and we wish you all the best and many projects approved.

Why Out of the Box International

The seemingly ever-lasting depression of European economies has shaken the very foundations of many European societies. The shear rate of unemployment in Europe and the omnipresent environmental crisis coupled with the often frustratingly slow process of decision making in the EU, are calling for civil society actors to step in and fill the void.

In the aftermath of the 2008. economic crisis, the apprehension of falling under the spell of apathy of economic depression across the continent has not been easy to shake off. However, pinpointing the culprits for the current state of affairs on any particular EU decision maker is not the answer. Nonetheless, the fact remains that the current approach to the economic and environmental crisis hasn’t yet shown the affected citizens the light at the end of the tunnel.

As representatives of the civil society we feel the need to make our voice heard in the midst of the current debate on economic crisis. Being a social enterprise we offer new and feasible ideas in education and community work, creative cross-sectorial cooperation among different actors and strong networking coalitions to turn these dire economic challenges into possibilities through social entrepreneurship initiatives which aim at benefiting wide range of citizens, particularly vulnerable groups and those affected by the economic crisis.

Social entrepreneurship is a simple concept that has been put into practice by civil society actors for the benefit of a specific social group or people, and this is precisely what we want: to create projects and initiatives with fresh ideas in different policies, educational programs or tools, support businesses, empower cultural initiatives and offer different solutions to individuals, corporate bodies, everybody who believe that we can have more Creative, Innovative and Cohesive Europe.
