❗️What Is This Training About?

SALTO EuroMed is launching the Erasmus+ Community of Practice (CoP) in South-Med, a series of four online meetings bringing together organisations active in Erasmus+ Youth across the South-Mediterranean region.

🏘️ How Erasmus+ youth projects create lasting change in local communities. The impact of Erasmus+ goes far beyond the individuals who participate. Local communities, host organisations, and even entire neighbourhoods are shaped by the projects that take place within them. This article explores the broader social impact of Erasmus+ youth exchanges — from building intercultural understanding to empowering grassroots organisations — and makes a compelling case for why these projects matter beyond the personal level. 👉 https://youthworkshub.org/3595/

ℹ️ Description About The Opportunity

The Community of Practice aims to create a space where practitioners can exchange experiences, reflect on challenges, and collectively develop approaches to strengthen the quality of Erasmus+ projects and partnerships.

Members of the Community of Practice are expected to take an active role in defining, assessing, and eventually disseminating practices and approaches connected to local realities. This is not a passive learning space, but rather a working group of practitioners committed to mutual learning, peer exchange, and the continuous improvement of Erasmus+ cooperation in the South-Med region.

All meetings will take place online from 11:00 to 14:00 CEST.

😄 How every Erasmus+ group chat starts vs. how it ends — a journey in messages.

This article captures the evolution of every Erasmus+ group dynamic with humour and honesty — and if you haven't experienced it yet, consider this your preview of what's coming. 👉 https://youthworkshub.org/15112/

A deeply human look at what these programmes mean beyond the paperwork. 👉 https://youthworkshub.org/15180/
