The European Commission has launched new calls for proposals under the Erasmus+ programme.
In particular, the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA), has launched a new call for proposal under Key Action 2 (KA2) – Cooperation among organisations and institutions. The Key Action 2 focuses on: Partnerships for Cooperation, which envisions the following field of actions: Cooperation Partnerships and Small-scale Partnerships.
Cooperation partnerships (ERASMUS-SPORT-2021-SCP)
The primary goal of Cooperation Partnerships is to allow organisations to increase the quality and relevance of their activities, to develop and reinforce their networks of partners, to increase their capacity to operate jointly at transnational level, boosting internationalisation of their activities and through exchanging or developing new practices and methods as well as sharing and confronting ideas. They aim to support the development, transfer and/or implementation of innovative practices as well as the implementation of joint initiatives promoting cooperation, peer learning and exchanges of experience at European level. Results should be re-usable, transferable, up scalable and, if possible, have a strong transdisciplinary dimension. Selected projects will be expected to share the results of their activities at local, regional, national level and transnational level. Cooperation Partnerships are anchored to the priorities and policy frameworks of each Erasmus+ sector, both at European and national level, while aiming at producing incentives for cross-sectoral and horizontal cooperation in thematic areas. Cooperation Partnerships aim at:
- Increasing quality in the work, activities and practices of organisations and institutions involved, opening to new actors, not naturally included within one sector;
- Building capacity of organisations to work transnationally and across sectors;
- Addressing common needs and priorities in the fields of education, training, youth and sport;
- Enabling transformation and change (at individual, organisational or sectoral level), leading to improvements and new approaches, in proportion to the context of each organisation.
The deadline for applications is the 17th of June 2021. The total project grant is a variable amount, with a minimum of 100 000 EUR and maximum of 400 000 EUR for projects with a minimum duration of 12 months and a maximum duration of 36 months.
