START PREPARING NOW FOR A EUROPEAN OPPORTUNITY
ERASMUS+ 2027Thinking about Erasmus+ in 2027? Now is the time to start shaping your idea, exploring the right project route and building the European relationships you will need.
Eureka helps UK organisations turn early ambitions into well-planned mobility and partnership projects with clear objectives, meaningful outcomes and strong European connections.
01 — LEARNING MOBILITY
GIVE PEOPLE THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN ABROAD
Create structured international learning, training and work-experience opportunities for learners, volunteers, apprentices, staff and professionals.
A strong mobility project starts with a clear purpose: who will benefit, what will they learn and how will that experience create lasting value when they return?
02 — COOPERATION PARTNERSHIPS
BUILD SOMETHING VALUABLE TOGETHER
Work with European organisations that share your interests, challenges or ambitions.
Partnership projects can enable organisations to secure funding, exchange effective practice, develop new approaches and resources, test ideas and address priorities through international collaboration.
03 — ORGANISATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
MAKE INTERNATIONAL WORK PART OF YOUR LONGER-TERM GROWTH
European projects can create benefits that extend well beyond an individual activity or visit.
They can strengthen staff expertise, expand international networks, improve organisational practice and create new opportunities for the learners and communities you support.
THE OPPORTUNITY
WHAT COULD ERASMUS+ HELP YOUR ORGANISATION ACHIEVE?
Erasmus+ creates opportunities for eligible organisations working across business, the voluntary sector, education, training, youth and sport to learn internationally, collaborate with European partners and strengthen their organisations.
For UK organisations considering future Erasmus+ opportunities, the important question is not simply “Can we apply?” but “What do we want to achieve, and which type of project will help us achieve it?”
CHOOSE YOUR STARTING ROUTE
WHAT KIND OF PROJECT ARE YOU CONSIDERING?
You do not need to have everything worked out before speaking to us. An early idea is enough to start exploring what could be possible.
MOBILITY PROJECT
Best suited to organisations that want learners, volunteers, apprentices, staff or professionals to gain meaningful learning, training or work experience in another European country.
Eureka can help you develop the project structure, learning objectives, partner arrangements, participant preparation, quality processes and evaluation.
PARTNERSHIP PROJECT
Best suited to organisations that want to seek funding to enable them to work with European partners on a shared challenge, priority or opportunity.
Eureka can help you shape the project idea, source funding, identify the right partners, define roles and activities, develop achievable outcomes and build a partnership capable of delivering them.
HOW EUREKA HELPS
FROM AN EARLY IDEA TO A PROJECT READY FOR FUNDING
The strongest projects are rarely developed at the last minute. Good preparation starts before the funding call opens.
Eureka helps you put the right foundations in place so that, when an appropriate opportunity becomes available, your organisation is ready to respond.
We can help you:
- Clarify what your organisation wants to achieve and who should benefit
- Explore eligibility and identify the most appropriate project route
- Find and engage suitable European partners
- Source funding to finance the project
- Develop clear activities, learning objectives and outcomes
- Build inclusion, quality and evaluation into the project from the beginning
- Define partner roles and responsibilities
- Develop realistic management, budget and risk arrangements
- Turn the project into a clear and credible funding proposal
