Enhancing Social Support in Erasmus+ Initiatives
For three decades, Erasmus+ has flourished, engaging close to 10 million individuals. The program’s commitment to Inclusion and Diversity has been fortified through initiatives aimed at broadening access and reducing obstacles to involvement.
A pivotal element for engagement in Erasmus+ is the provision of social support. Insights from mobility research within minority groups and extensive experience indicate that trust-based pre-existing relationships are key in drawing new participants to Erasmus+ events.
Supportive Measures:
We are dedicated to aiding project coordinators, youth leaders, and advocates in connecting with communities that have yet to fully participate in Erasmus+.
This project efforts focus on enhancing social support by leveraging established networks and adopting a strategic approach to this matter.
Project Objectives:

Elevate consciousness and understanding concerning issues of inclusion and intersectionality.
Cultivate skills essential for integrating underrepresented demographics into local and global youth and educational initiatives.
Hone abilities in opportunity communication, with an emphasis on relationship building and trust establishment.
Formulate action strategies, instruments, and workshops for subsequent endeavors.
Promote Non-Formal Education (NFE) to spark interest in youth-oriented activities.
Training Outcomes:
Post-training, participants should:
Possess comprehensive knowledge on matters of inclusion and intersectionality.
