From Neu-Isenburg to Europe and back

Part of our youth work all year round

Our exchanges are connected to what we do at home all year. See it on every project page under “From Neu-Isenburg and back”.

  1. It starts at home

    Topics come from our groups in Neu-Isenburg: what young people talk about in workshops and circles becomes the theme of a project.

  2. We prepare and go

    Before an exchange the group meets in Neu-Isenburg to prepare the topic, the programme and the trip. Then we meet young people from other countries, abroad or as hosts in Germany.

  3. We bring it back

    After the project the participants share what they learned with other young people at home, in a workshop, a presentation or a local action, and receive a Youthpass.

Erasmus+, explained simply

Two ways to take part

Erasmus+ is the European Union programme for education, training, youth and sport. In the youth field it lets groups of young people and youth workers meet, live and learn together in another country.

A

Youth exchanges

Groups of young people from different countries meet and live together for up to 21 days. They work on a theme that matters to them, with activities they plan and prepare themselves: workshops, debates, role plays, outdoor activities and more.

B

Mobility of youth workers

Youth workers and organisations develop their skills and networks through:

  • seminars and training courses
  • networking events
  • study visits
  • job shadowing abroad

Roles in a project

Every Erasmus+ project has an applicant and partner organisations. We have taken on all of these roles.

  1. Applicant (coordinator)

    Applies to the National Agency of its country on behalf of all partners and is responsible for the grant. In Germany this is JUGEND für Europa. We have coordinated 3 projects.

  2. Partner organisation

    Prepares its own group of young people and youth workers, takes part in the activity and shares the results at home. We have been a partner in 2 projects.

  3. Host

    The organisation in whose country the activity takes place: it runs the venue and the programme. When we coordinate a project in Germany, we are also the host.

Good to know

Questions we hear a lot

Who can join a youth exchange?

Young people aged 13 to 30 who live in one of the participating countries. Each call says the exact age range and how many places there are.

How much does it cost?

Food, accommodation and the programme are covered by the project, and travel costs are reimbursed up to the Erasmus+ limit for your distance. The call explains the details.

Do I need to speak perfect English?

No. You need enough English to communicate with the group. Non-formal education means learning by doing, together, and nobody is graded.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes. Participants receive a Youthpass, the European certificate that describes what you learned during the project.

How can my organisation apply for a project?

Any organisation or group of young people established in an EU Member State or a third country associated to the Programme can apply on behalf of all partners. Applications go to the National Agency of the country where the applicant is based. Looking for a partner in Germany? Write to us.
