The application process for the first round of Erasmus+ 2026 has officially been completed. Free European Youth e.V. has successfully submitted all planned project proposals, marking an important step toward new international partnerships, learning opportunities, and youth-focused activities.
A Successful Application Period
During the preparation period, our team worked closely with partner organizations to develop strong project concepts that respond to the needs of young people and youth workers across Europe. Each proposal was carefully prepared to reflect shared priorities, clear learning objectives, and realistic plans for implementation.
The submitted applications address key themes connected to our organization’s mission, including social inclusion, digital skills, sustainability, intercultural learning, youth participation, employability, and the development of innovative non-formal education methods.
Strengthening International Cooperation
The application process also created new opportunities to expand our network and deepen cooperation with organizations from different countries. By combining complementary experience, local knowledge, and shared goals, the proposed projects aim to create meaningful international learning environments for participants and partner teams.
These partnerships are central to the quality and long-term impact of Erasmus+ projects. They allow organizations to exchange good practices, develop new educational tools, and reach a wider group of young people and professionals.
What Happens Next?
With all proposals now submitted, the projects will enter the official evaluation process. During this period, applications will be assessed according to programme priorities, project quality, expected impact, partnership capacity, and implementation plans.
While awaiting the results, our team will continue communicating with project partners, preparing future activities, and developing the organizational groundwork needed for successful implementation.
Looking Toward New Opportunities
The completion of the first call represents more than the end of an application deadline. It is the beginning of a new phase in which ideas may develop into international exchanges, training activities, partnerships, and educational resources that create lasting value for young people and youth workers.
“Every submitted proposal is a step toward stronger partnerships, broader participation, and new learning opportunities across Europe.”
We thank all partner organizations and team members who contributed their time, expertise, and commitment throughout the application process. Further updates will be shared as soon as the evaluation results become available.
