An Erasmus Plus Youth Project Writing Challenge is running on the week February 15th-22nd 2022, fully online.

The aim of the training is to help you easily write your first Erasmus+ Youth KA1 project and submit it for European funding, with the supervision of experts that guide you in the process.

Erasmus Plus Youth Project Writing Challenge

The challenge itself consists of:

  • Daily videos: a short daily explanation video in the Erasmus+ Youth Academy Facebook community at 18.00 CET from 1st to 14th February 2022;
  • Home tasks: every day, after each video, you will receive a small home task. You need around 30 minutes to complete it, and at the end of the challenge, you have a fully developed project idea ready for submission upon the next deadline;
  • Supportive community: no need to do it alone. In the Erasmus+ Youth Academy you complete the challenge day-by-day with other participants (or your own team), as well as share your successes and ask questions to challenge facilitators;
  • Mentorship session and feedback: complimentary mentorship sessions will be available to get feedback on project applications.
