Erasmus+ is the EU’s programme to support education, training, youth and sport in Europe.
The aim of Erasmus+ is to contribute to the Europe 2020 strategy for growth, jobs, social equity and inclusion, as well as the aims of ET2020, the EU’s strategic framework for education and training.
Erasmus+ also aims to promote the sustainable development of its partners in the field of higher education, and contribute to achieving the objectives of the EU Youth Strategy.
Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs is a cross-border exchange programme which gives new or aspiring entrepreneurs the chance to learn from experienced entrepreneurs running small businesses in other Participating Countries.
The exchange of experience takes place during a stay with the experienced entrepreneur, which helps the new entrepreneur acquire the skills needed to run a small firm. The host benefits from fresh perspectives on his/her business and gets the opportunities to cooperate with foreign partners or learn about new markets.
Erasmus+ supports traineeships (work placements, internships, etc) abroad for students currently enrolled in higher education institutions in Programme countries at Bachelor and Master level as well as for doctoral candidates. These opportunities are also open to recent graduates.
By doing a traineeship abroad with Erasmus+, you can improve not only your communication, language and inter-cultural skills, but also soft skills highly valued by future employers, as well as become more entrepreneurial.

CURABILITY
2021-1-ES01-KA220-ADU-000030420
Access to cultural heritage is not only a basic human right, but also a fundamental strategy for enhancing and promoting cultural heritage. Cultural heritage accessibility for all is a multidisciplinary field that is not widely taught in the different European curricula. It is relevant to fields such as museology, special education, pedagogy, cultural heritage interpretation, archaeology, history, art, architecture, inclusive and universal design, and ICT. Most of them are separate disciplines that should work hand in hand when it comes to accessibility from cultural heritage, but they mostly work in isolation and do not have a common teaching practise for the needs of people with disabilities. As a result, professionals who take jobs in museums and galleries are not equipped with the knowledge and experience to make their environments more engaging and accessible.
WE ARE COLOURFUL
2021-1-LT01-KA220-SCH-000032445
The current complex and diverse reality in European schools in terms of students’ cultural background, economic status and social inequalities opens up a whole new field of study to address diversity, inclusion and children’s background (in every sense) during schooling. Many schools have identified a lack of knowledge about the cognitive, social and emotional development process among their professionals.
The WE ARE COLOURFUL project focuses on preventing, identifying and reducing the problems that arise in classrooms due to differences between students.
Throughout the project, partners will be focusing on 4 independent but interacting categories of discriminating dimensions:
- Neurodevelopmental disorders
- Learning processes and styles
- Cultural diversity
- Social inequality

TEAM of ART
2020-1-FR01-KA204-080483
The inclusion of disadvantaged audiences remains a major challenge for the museum sector. Inclusion starts with the question of accessibility. This does not stop at the accessibility of the buildings and the adaptation of visits for disabled visitors. It also involves the presentation of the content and with the development of online museum offers, digital devices and adapted settings which can prove to be a tremendous asset for people who have little or no access to culture, if done inclusively. For those with reading difficulties, for people with DYS (dyslexia), learning disabilities, visual, hearing or intellectual disabilities, artworks are still difficult to access.
Team of Art proposes to accompany these audiences in their discovery of artworks through a scripted presentation, in the form of a linear narrative, with a level of language which is easy to read and understand.
