Topic description

This call aims to set up 2-years’ Framework Partnership Agreements with European Civil Society Organisations.

Cooperation with high quality civil society organisations is relevant due to their broad contact with end users through their extensive networks at both European and national level. They have a dual role given their top-down multiplier effect and their bottom-up contribution to policy development.

The cooperation will also promote policy transfer, learning and support on EU objectives and priorities (including equity, inclusion and diversity in line with the objectives of the Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps Inclusion and Diversity Strategy) among the relevant stakeholders in the participating countries.

Such cooperation contributes to create a broad sense of ownership in relation to EU actions and policies relevant to people and to take into consideration ideas and concerns of civil society at all levels.

It is vital for securing the active involvement of civil society stakeholders, for promoting their participation in the Erasmus+ Programme and other European Union programmes and for disseminating policy, programme results and good practice among stakeholders through their networks and beyond.

Cooperation with civil society organisations in the field of education and training is important for raising awareness about and contributing to the achievement of the European Education Area and other European sector-specific policy agendas among Europe’s citizens.

Cooperation with civil society organisations is also instrumental in providing the Commission with analysis and advice on the main education and training priorities, as established under the European Education Area and the Digital Education Action Plan.
