Welcome to eFocus Education! The "eFocus Education" supplement, prepared by the Executive Agency (EACEA), takes a closer look at EU projects in the field of education and training. Complementing DG Education and Culture's e-newsletter, it illustrates how EU policies are brought to life through transnational projects funded under the Education Programmes.
Supporting learning and training opportunities from childhood to old age, Europe is delivering benefits to people throughout the Member States and beyond.
This edition of "eFocus Education" looks at how the EU's programmes for higher education with an international scope work with partners and beneficiaries outside the EU.
Whether you are a newcomer to EU-funded projects, an experienced project participant or are simply interested in European Education, we hope you will be inspired by the results, experiences and successes from the field.
Higher education is a major driver for social and economic progress. But it constantly needs to feed on new ideas and ways of thinking. These new ideas are less and less home-grown, and increasingly the result of international exchange.
