Erasmus Days 2024

One of the key missions of the Erasmus+ programme is ensuring that all young people, especially those with fewer opportunities, can access international mobility. Youth workers play a vital role in achieving this. By engaging vulnerable young people in Erasmus+ projects, they promote social inclusion and equal opportunities. The Erasmus Days 2024, running from October 14-19, provide the perfect platform to raise awareness about these valuable opportunities.

Why Focus on Young People with Fewer Opportunities?

Young people from disadvantaged backgrounds often face barriers to accessing the same opportunities as their peers. Erasmus+ helps tackle these inequalities by offering tailored mobility programs and support. Youth workers are essential in bridging this gap. They ensure that these young people know about the Erasmus+ resources available to them.

Using Erasmus Days 2024 to Reach Vulnerable Youth

Erasmus Days are a great opportunity to promote inclusion-focused projects. Youth workers can reach out to vulnerable young people through different initiatives. Here’s how:

  • Host Inclusive Events: During Erasmus Days, organize activities that specifically target young people with fewer opportunities. These can include workshops, info sessions, and discussions where they can learn about Erasmus+ programs, ask questions, and connect with role models.
  • Share Success Stories: Real-life success stories can inspire and motivate. During Erasmus Days 2024, highlight the experiences of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds who have participated in Erasmus+. Personal stories show that international mobility is within reach for everyone.
  • Collaborate with Local Organizations: Work with community groups, schools, and social services that already support young people with fewer opportunities. Collaborating during Erasmus Days allows you to reach a broader audience and connect these individuals with Erasmus+ projects.

Tools and Resources for Youth Workers

Erasmus+ provides several tools and resources to support vulnerable youth. For instance, platforms like Eurodesk offer essential information for youth workers and young people. Furthermore, Erasmus+ grants, like mobility and inclusion grants, help facilitate participation in international projects. Erasmus Days 2024 are the perfect time to showcase these tools. Use the events to demonstrate how these resources work and encourage more young people to get involved.
