The Moldovan young people will have more chances to obtain scholarships to study at higher education establishments in Europe owing to the EU’s Erasmus+ program that was launched in Chisinau on February 19, IPN reports.
Elena Madan, the representative of the EU Delegation to Moldova, said the seven-year program does not limit the number of scholarships. “Any Moldovan young person who will show talent and learning abilities can obtain a scholarship to study in Europe,” she stated. Simultaneously, the young people from the EU will be able to study at universities in Moldova.
The Erasmus+ program aims to boost skills and employability, as well as modernizing education, training, and youth work. With a budget of about €15 billion, it will provide opportunities for over 4 million Europeans to study, train, gain work experience and volunteer abroad. Erasmus+ will support transnational partnerships among education, training, and youth institutions and organizations to foster cooperation and bridge the worlds of education and work.
