| Description | The European Union shares with the Western Balkans ambitious objectives for smart, inclusive and sustainable growth with a view to delivering high levels of employment, productivity and social cohesion. Investing in human and social capital is an essential condition to achieve those growth targets. The Western Balkans Youth Window will reinforce the levels of participation of the Western Balkans in Erasmus+ in a twofold way: • By increasing the number of Erasmus+ non-formal learning projects involving the participation of organisations and participants - notably young people and youth workers - from the Western Balkans; • By allowing organisations from Western Balkans to be project coordinators and apply directly for an EU grant under the framework of Erasmus+. The Programme will be implemented by the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA). |
