Introduction and objectives
EU funding can play an essential role in supporting Pact for Skills members to implement initiatives fostering skills development, resilience, cooperation, and innovative approaches to upskilling and reskilling.
Within the broader EU funding landscape, Erasmus+ stands out as the key programme in the areas of education, training, youth and sport. Under the current funding period 2021-2027, the Erasmus+ budget amounts to €26.2 billion, of which €4.3 billion are to be invested in 2024 to support young people in higher education and training, as well as to help adult learners to upskill and reskill.
This webinar will be an opportunity for Pact for Skills members to hear directly from the European Commission, and access more detailed information on these new funding opportunities under Erasmus+, with a focus on those that are most relevant to support Pact members’ work to upskill and reskill the European workforce and to strengthen cooperation at sectoral and regional level.
