Objectives and priorities of Erasmus+ Youth in Action

The Erasmus+/Youth in Action programmes both has objectives as well as priorities. Each project developed under the Erasmus+ programme should work on achieving these objectives and priorities. When you write an application, you will be asked how your own objectives and priorities are linked with those of Youth in Action. This means that you need to clearly understand what you want to do, and why you want to do it with the support of Erasmus+/Youth in Action.
