The next generation of programmes (2028-2034) is currently being prepared, including the Erasmus+ programme and its youth section. The German Advisory Board for the Erasmus+ Youth and the European Solidarity Corps ESC has formulated recommendations: The programmes have demonstrated success in certain areas, while others require improvement. They hold significant potential for fostering social cohesion and realizing European values, which is especially crucial at this time. As a member of the German Advisory Board, the IB fully supports its positions.
The position paper of the German National Advisory Board for the EU Programs Erasmus+ Youth in Germany and the European Solidarity Corps emphasizes the vital role of these programs in strengthening social cohesion, democratic values, and youth participation in Europe. It highlights the need for continued financial support in non-formal education, accessibility, and international cooperation, while calling for the optimization of administrative processes and adequate funding to maximize their impact in the next program generation (2028–2034).
