The Erasmus+ programme gives people the opportunity to study, train, undertake work experience and volunteer abroad with the aim of boosting skills and employability, particularly amongst young people, in the Netherlands.

Erasmus+ also supports transnational partnerships among Education, Training and Youth institutions and organisations to foster cooperation and bridge the worlds of Education and work in order to tackle the skills gaps we are facing in Europe. It also supports Dutch national efforts to modernise Education, Training and Youth systems.

In the field of sport, Erasmus+ funding supports projects that result in the development, transfer and implementation of innovative ideas and practices in sport at European, national, regional and local level. It also aims to increase cooperation between sporting organisations and tackle issues such as intolerance, discrimination, doping and match-fixing in sport.

Impact

Anyone who is familiar with Erasmus+ will also be familiar with the term “impact”. This term also gives rise to many questions, however. What exactly does it mean for your project? How can you ensure that a project has the largest impact possible? We would like to help you achieve this result. 

To make an impact in education and training, it is necessary to dream big. The Dutch National Agency Erasmus+ has developed a tool that helps you dream. Only dreaming is not enough, the tool also offers you starting points for taking concrete steps within an Erasmus+ project to actually achieve your bigger educational goals. Are you ready to fulfil your dreams? 

Take the first step, go to our Impacttool and make impact with Erasmus+. Besides the impacttool, the Erasmus+ Impact Handbook is also available to help you maximise the impact of your project. You can download the handbook in English and eight other languages.
