UNIMED has joined European higher education organisations in calling for at least €60 billion for Erasmus+ in the EU’s next long-term budget (2028–2034).
Why it matters ![]()
For nearly 40 years, Erasmus+ has been one of the EU’s greatest success stories, empowering millions of learners, strengthening universities, boosting skills, inclusion and European cooperation.
The proposed €40.8 billion is not enough to meet agreed goals once inflation and new responsibilities are considered
€60 billion would safeguard quality, expand access, and support priorities like skills, innovation, inclusion, digitalisation and global partnerships
