University group calls for improvements to Erasmus+

European University Association highlights problems with digital tools and management

The European University Association has called for action to improve the EU’s Erasmus+ scheme, which supports academic mobility and higher education cooperation across the continent.  

In a policy input document released on 17 November, the EUA, which represents more than 800 universities, said there are “major problems” with Erasmus+ digital processes and there needs to be a less bureaucratic culture in its management organisation.
