Read the Guide
The first step is to read and comprehend the guide published by the EU Commission on the Erasmus+ 2020 Call to understand you understand the funding rules and eligibility criteria for your chosen activity. Find the link to the guide by clicking here.
The guide is also available in your country language.
Research and generate a Project Idea
Finding an original project idea requires some research and some brainstorming. But mainly it should cover 2 key areas: a. what is the need/ issue of your school and b. how does the project present a solution to it
Keep in mind that successful KA1 mobility project should be based on the real educational needs of the school and staff and must be relevant to the action objectives and priorities of the school.
Do some research in THE ERASMUS+ RESULTS PLATFORM (https://ec.europa.eu/programmes/erasmus-plus/projects_en ) of your country where you can search for any type of project, using the keyword that best describes your project idea
Are you Eligible?
Check the Guide and contact the National Agency in your country whether your organisation is eligible for Erasmus+ funding.
Study carefully the 4 main assessment criteria and make sure that your project ticks highly on:
- The relevance of the project– WHAT you want to do in the project and WHY
- Quality of the project design and implementation
- Quality of the partnership and the cooperation arrangements
- Impact, dissemination and sustainability
