The Erasmus+ National Agency at the HEA has just under €15m to allocate to student and staff mobilities and strategic partnerships under the 2019-2020 Erasmus+ call. This is the largest amount to be allocated since the Erasmus programme began in 1987.
The amount includes the following:
- €11,811,664 student and staff mobilities to Programme Countries (EU 28 and Iceland, Turkey, Liechtenstein, North Macedonia, Serbia and Norway)
- €1,838,349 student and staff mobilities to and from Partner Countries (Rest of the world)
- €1,232,996 for strategic partnerships
The funds will support almost 5,000 individual mobilities to and from Ireland in the period 2019-2020.
Further details will be released later this week.
