The European Union Programmes Agency (EUPA), the National Agency responsible for the management of EU educational funds in Malta, on behalf of the European Commission, has launched the Erasmus+ Programme which is the EU funding programme for Education, Training, Youth and Sport for 2014 – 2020.

With a budget of €€14.7 billion for 7 years, Erasmus+ aims at providing opportunities for over four million Europeans to study, train, gain work experience and volunteer abroad. It promotes synergies, cooperation and cross-fertilisation between the different fields namely adult, youths, schools, higher education institutions and vocational education and training (VET).

For 2014 the European Commission has allocated Malta a budget of over €5.5 million for learning mobility of individuals, cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices and support for policy reform.

Robert Debono, EUPA's National Coordinator said that the agency was committed to raising awareness, promote the take-up of the funds available under this programme, monitor the implementation of initiatives applied for and disseminate good practices to potential beneficiaries.
