The first key action supports the mobility of individuals for the purpose of learning.  The focus is on the interdisciplinary topics of digitalization, inclusion, ‘green Erasmus’ and civic engagement. Advances in digitalization are reflected not only in Erasmus without Papers (EWP), but also in new openings for funding such as ‘blended mobility’ or ‘blended intensive programs’.
