The recently launched Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps programmes offer countless opportunities to young people and organisations.  We, at the SALTO network, work to improve the quality and impact of projects within the programmes and seek to establish links with the European Union youth policy through strategic actions.

"Spotlight on SALTO" was a series of online info sessions through which we highlighted the opportunities of the Erasmus+ Youth and European Solidarity Corps programmes, presented the activities and tools of SALTO Resource Centres, and connected with the people who implement the programmes and organise projects. We also introduced the programme strategies developed by the SALTOs: Inclusion & Diversity Strategy, Youth Participation Strategy, Youthpass Strategy, European Training Strategy, and Strategy for Cooperation with Neighbouring Partner Countries.

How were the sessions organised?

In each session, we focused on different qualitative elements and strategies of the programmes and include inputs from SALTO Resource Centres and experts. We also provided space for questions and comments from the participants. Watch the recordings below.
