To be eligible to apply students must:
- be a resident of one of the Erasmus+ Programme Countries;
- have successfully completed first cycle higher education studies (Bachelor or equivalent);

More information on the Scheme and the participating financial institutions is available here.

Studenti universitari a livello di master che desiderano completare il loro programma di studi in un altro Paese del Programma, possono presentare domanda per un prestito garantito UE come contributo alle loro spese.

I prestiti vengono offerti dalle banche e le agenzie di prestito a condizioni favorevoli per gli studenti, e comprendono tassi di interesse migliori di quelli del mercato e fino ai due anni, affinché i laureati possano trovare un impiego prima di iniziare il rimborso.

Per essere ammessi alla richiesta di finanziamento gli studenti devono:

• essere residenti in uno dei paesi aderenti al Programma Erasmus+
• aver completato il primo ciclo di studi (laurea triennale o equivalente)
• essere stati accettati per un programma di secondo ciclo (laurea magistrale, master o equivalente) presso un istituto d'istruzione superiore (IIS) riconosciuto titolare della carta Erasmus per l'istruzione superiore (CEIS).
• Il corso di laurea magistrale (o master, o equivalente) che intendono seguire deve: 
• svolgersi in un paese diverso dal proprio paese di residenza e dal paese in cui hanno ottenuto il diploma di laurea triennale (o il diploma equivalente che consente l'accesso al programma di laurea magistrale)
• essere un programma completo che consente il conseguimento di un titolo (master, laurea magistrale o equivalente).

I prestiti possono essere erogati soltanto per studi condotti presso università titolari della carta Erasmus per l'istruzione superiore.

I prestiti hanno un importo massimo di 12 000 EUR per programmi di master di 1 anno e di 18 000 EUR per programmi di 2 anni e possono coprire costi di sostentamento, spese di iscrizione e altri costi legati allo studio in ciascuno dei 33 paesi aderenti al Programma Erasmus+.

Attualmente il regime è messo a disposizione degli studenti residenti nei seguenti paesi partecipanti al programma e che intendono studiare all'estero in un altro paese partecipante al programma:

• Spagna
• Italia (Emilia Romagna)
• Croazia
• Romania
• Turchia

Gli studenti di altri paesi partecipanti al programma possono candidarsi per seguire un corso di laurea magistrale in Spagna. Le università di Lussemburgo e Cipro offrono formule analoghe agli studenti provenienti da tutti gli altri paesi partecipanti al programma che intendano frequentare un corso di studi magistrale presso una delle due università.

Invece di un prestito finanziario, le università offrono servizi in natura (tasse universitarie, spese di alloggio, ecc.) che possono essere rimborsati dopo la laurea. Viceversa, ai prestiti diretti si applica la garanzia dell'UE, per cui non è richiesta alcuna garanzia collaterale.

L'elenco degli intermediari partecipanti è destinato a crescere con l'adesione di altri istituti finanziari e università al programma. Si tratterà molto probabilmente di un processo graduale: per aggiornamenti sulla disponibilità del programma, consulta regolarmente questa pagina.

Gli studenti possono presentare domanda direttamente presso le banche partecipanti, gli istituti di istruzione superiore o le società che erogano prestiti agli studenti.

Per ulteriori informazioni prendere in visione la guida del programma Erasmus+ o contattare l'agenzia nazionale del proprio paese.

The European Commission co-finances information measures relating to the common agricultural policy (CAP) that aim, in particular, at building trust within the EU and among all citizens, farmers and non-farmers alike.
The common agricultural policy (CAP) is a policy for all the citizens of the EU and the benefits that it provides to them must be clearly demonstrated.

Objectives
For the general public, the objective is to raise public awareness on the relevance of EU support to agriculture and rural development through the CAP.
For stakeholders, the objective is to engage with stakeholders (mainly farmers and other parties active in rural areas) in order to further communicate about the CAP to their constituencies, and to the wider public.

 Support will go to actions which should include several of the following types of measures:
- production and distribution of multimedia or audiovisual material,
- web and social media campaigns
- media events,
- conferences, seminars, workshops and studies on CAP related issues,

Themes
The proposals for information measures shall illustrate how the CAP should continue contributing towards the delivery of the Commission's political priorities. The common agricultural policy is one of the EU's most important policies. It is a partnership between agriculture and society and between Europe and its farmers. It is a common policy for all the countries of the EU.

The European Commission co-finances information measures relating to the common agricultural policy (CAP) that aim, in particular, at:

 Boosting jobs, growth and investment in rural areas and the maintenance of viable rural communities throughout the EU;
 Fostering knowledge, innovation and digitisation in the agricultural sector;
 Enhancing environmental sustainability and climate resilience;
 Strengthening generational renewal and the socioeconomic fabric of rural areas;
 Ensuring a fair return to farmers from the agri-food chain to maintain the viability of European agricultural production and the future of the family farm model;
 Encouraging healthy eating habits for children and adults with the consumption of safe and sustainably-produced quality food and the distribution of agricultural products in the EU school scheme, as an important contribution to the Commission's healthy living initiative.

Support will go to actions which should include several of the following types of measures:
production and distribution of multimedia or audiovisual material,
production and distribution of printed material (pub­ lications, posters, etc.),
setting up online and social network tools,
media events,
conferences, seminars, workshops (preferably web streamed) and studies on CAP related issues,
events type "city farm" nature which help to explain the importance of agriculture to the urban population,
events type "open farm" nature aiming at showing to the citizens the role of agriculture (eg best practices, innovation projects),
static or mobile exhibitions or information points.
The measures have to be implemented from 1 May 2018 to 30 April 2019.
The maximum duration of information measures is 12 months.

The priority theme for this call is the reformed Common Agricultural Policy (CAP)and the challenges ahead.
For citizens, the priority themes will deal with general topics about the CAP and should focus on its three core elements: food safety, sustainable management of the natural resources and the development of the rural areas. The objective of these actions is to inform a large number of people about the basic issues of the reformed CAP.
For rural actors, actions should focus on the implementation of new measures introduced by the CAP reform and on specific issues related to policy initiatives initiated after the reform of the CAP, such as ‘organic farming’.

Target groups:

rural communities, agricultural stakeholders, farmers and other potential beneficiaries of rural development measures;
general public (with particular attention to young people in urban areas)
More specifically:
- school children, teachers and university students: novel approaches should be used to engage with young people and raise their awareness of the CAP and the contribution that it makes in many areas such as the climate change challenge, food, healthy and high quality eating as a lifestyle choice, in relation also with the new EU School Scheme for Milk, Fruit and Vegetables which entered into force as from 1 August 2017.
- general public: the focus of information on the CAP would put greater emphasis on addressing the (mis-) perceptions of European agriculture and the role of farming in society instead of the policy content. There needs to be also greater understanding of the enormous contribution the EU agri-food sector provides to the wider EU economy.
- stakeholders: it should be ensured that there is greater awareness of the contribution that the CAP makes to the support of economic growth of rural areas, especially SMEs. The contribution that is made through the Rural Development programmes should be promoted, through which the EU is investing almost EUR 100 billion in the period 2014-2020 for the development of European rural areas. It will also be emphasised the support provided for sustainable production practices and other measures that will help to mitigate and adapt to climate change.

Budget: total budget earmarked for the co-financing of activities is estimated at EUR 4 000 000. The maximum grant will be EUR 500 000.

Applicants: any organisation legally established in an EU Member State can apply: farmers' or rural development organisations, European associations, non-governmental organisations, public authorities of the Member States, medias companies, educational institutions, universities and research centers.

Town twinning is aimed at activities that involve or promote direct exchanges between European citizens through their participation in town twinning activities and encourage networking and cooperation between twinned towns. The measure Town twinning is the first Measure of the Strand 2. Democratic engagement and civic participation within the within the"Europe for Citizens 2014-2020 programme. This strand aims to foster European citizenship and improve conditions for civic and democratic participation at EU level, to encourage democratic participation of citizens at EU level and to support concrete participation in the EU policy-making process.

Strand 2. Democratic engagement and civic participation is directed at activities covering civic participation, focusing in particular on European Union policies.Initiatives developing opportunities for mutual understanding, intercultural learning, solidarity, societal engagement and volunteering at EU level. 
 

Volunteering is an essential element in active citizenship: by giving one’s time for the benefit of others, volunteers service their community and play an active role in society. They develop the sense of belonging to a community thereby also gaining ownership. Volunteering is therefore a particularly powerful means to develop citizens’ commitment to their society and to its political life. Civil society organisations, associations of a European general interest, town twinning associations and other participating organisations often rely on volunteer work to carry out and to develop their activities. Therefore, particular attention is paid to the promotion of volunteering, in particular through the European Solidarity Corps.
In its first phase, the European Solidarity Corps, the new EU initiative which aims at giving young people across the EU the opportunity to volunteer where help is needed and to respond to crisis situations, will build on existing EU programmes including the Europe for Citizens programme. In this context, project promoters are encouraged to make use of the European Solidarity Corps. 
Promoters making use of members of the European Solidarity Corps must comply with the requirements laid down by the European Solidarity Corps Charter, including the requirement relating to the insurance of the members. Indeed, within the framework of the Europe for Citizens Programme, the Agency does not provide directly or indirectly an insurance coverage to the volunteers/members used by the promoters for their projects. It is therefore for each promoter to ensure that the volunteers/members they are making use of are properly insured for their activities. 
All the eligible countries within the Europe for Citizens programme can participate to the European Solidarity Corps initiative.

Gemellaggio tra città è mirato ad attività che implicano e promuovono scambi diretti tra cittadini europei attraverso la loro partecipazione in attività di gemellaggio, e incoraggia la creazione di reti tra città gemellate. La misura Gemellaggi tra città è la prima misura dell'Asse 2. Impegno democratico e partecipazione civica nel quadro del programma "L'Europa per i cittadini 2014-2020". Quest'Asse mira a promuovere la cittadinanza europea e migliorare le condizioni per la partecipazione democratica e civica dei cittadini a livello dell'Unione, sviluppando la consapevolezza dei cittadini sul processo decisionale dell'Unione.  

Asse 2. Impegno democratico e partecipazione civica è rivolto ad attività che coprono attività legate alla partecipazione civica, focalizzando l'attenzione sulle politiche dell'Unione Europea. Iniziative che promuovono opportunità per la comprensione reciproca, l'apprendimento interculturale, la solidarietà, l'impegno sociale e il volontariato a livello UE.  

Il volontariato è un elemento essenziale di una cittadinanza attiva: dedicando il proprio tempo agli altri, i volontari rendono un servizio alla loro comunità e svolgono un ruolo attivo nella società. In tal modo sviluppano il senso di appartenenza a una comunità, assumendosene anche la responsabilità. Pertanto, il volontariato è uno strumento particolarmente efficace per rafforzare l’impegno dei cittadini a favore della loro società e della sua vita politica. Le organizzazioni della società civile, le associazioni di interesse generale europeo, le associazioni per il gemellaggio tra città e altre organizzazioni partecipanti si affidano spesso al lavoro dei volontari per svolgere e sviluppare le proprie attività. Per tale motivo, un’attenzione particolare è riservata alla promozione del volontariato, in particolare tramite il Corpo europeo di solidarietà.

Il Corpo europeo di solidarietà è un’iniziativa dell’Unione europea che offre ai giovani l’opportunità di operare come volontari o di impegnarsi in progetti, nel proprio paese o all’estero, che aiuteranno le comunità e le persone in tutta l’Europa.

Nella sua fase attuale, il Corpo europeo di solidarietà si avvale degli strumenti dell’Unione esistenti, tra cui il programma “Europa per i cittadini”.  Pertanto i candidati possono utilizzare il programma “Europa per i cittadini” per compiere opera di sensibilizzazione sul Corpo europeo di solidarietà e farvi ricorso. In particolare, i candidati sono invitati a reclutare i suoi membri, accertandosi che le organizzazioni interessate soddisfino i criteri previsti per il loro accoglimento e sottoscrivendo la Carta del Corpo europeo di solidarietà. La Commissione europea ha istituito un portale web dedicato al Corpo europeo di solidarietà. Tutti i paesi ammissibili nell’ambito del programma Europa per i cittadini possono partecipare all’iniziativa del Corpo europeo di solidarietà.

2.1. Gemellaggio tra città.

2. The Roberto Cimetta Fund and Biennale Warszawa are offering travel grants in the framework of the Biennale Warszawa in May and June 2019, thus facilitating and increasing mobility and creativity of artists between Central Eastern Europe and the Arab-Middle East region. 

Biennale Warszawa (BW) is a public institution focusing on a long-term work plan and operating on 2-year work cycles, which terminate with a festival lasting several weeks.
Its aim is to integrate research, activism and artistic work all in one.

Integrating these dualities of expression leads to mutual strengthening of capacities and synergies, and avoids already worked out ideas, artworks or initiatives

Criterii de eligibilitate

- călătoria trebuie să prezinte un potențial direct sau indirect pentru un impact constructiv și pe termen lung asupra sectorului artelor din propria țară. Astfel, călătoria trebuie să contribuie la consolidarea capacităților solicitanților, care, la rândul lor, pot împărtăși experiența lor în sistem „de rețea”, experiență de care vor beneficia artiștii și operatorii din regiunea lor, astfel încât să mențină, să reînnoiască și să dezvolte arta contemporană;

- călătoria poate avea loc imediat ce este lansat apelul (1 ianuarie 2020), dar în acest caz, solicitantul riscă să plătească călătoria fără a garanta succesul candidaturii;

 - RCF va oferi până la 3 granturi de călătorie de persoană.

Cine poate candida

- artiști și operatori culturali (interpreți, creatori, profesori, organizații culturale, administratori, antreprenori, lideri de proiect) care locuiesc și lucrează în Europa, Africa de Nord și Orientul Mijlociu, care nu sunt în măsură să găsească singuri resurse financiare.

- solicitările trebuie formulate de persoane fizice și nu de organizații;

- doar 3 membri ai unui grup pot solicita un grant privind același proiect. Solicitanții pot primi în total trei granturi RCF și se admite o singură solicitare de persoană la fiecare apel;

2. Fondul Roberto Cimetta și Bienala Varșovia oferă granturi de călătorie în cadrul Bienalei Varșovia din mai și iunie 2019, facilitând și crescând mobilitatea și creativitatea artiștilor între Europa Centrală și de Est și regiunea araba a Orientului Mijlociu.

Bienala Varșovia (BW) este o instituție publică care se concentrează pe un plan de lucru pe termen lung și care operează pe cicluri de lucru de 2 ani și se încheie cu un festival care durează câteva săptămâni.

Scopul său este de a integra cercetarea, activismul și munca artistică.

Ideea principală din spatele conceptului Bienalei Varșovia este de a grupa și structura expertiza în cultură și artă, precum și în politică.

De la acest nivel, sunt create și dezbătute noi idei artistice, politice, sociale, economice și ecologice, construind modele alternative de funcționare în lumea post-criză.

Conceptul curatorial pentru Bienala Varșovia se concentrează pe activitățile instituției în jurul a trei dualități: artă/cultură, cercetare/discurs și activism/politică. Integrarea acestor dualități de expresie duce la consolidarea reciprocă a capacităților și sinergiilor și evită idei, lucrări de artă sau inițiative deja dezvoltate.

Candidatul ar trebui să abordeze direct contextul prezentat de Bienala Varșovia și să se concentreze pe posibilitățile viitoare în materie de bunuri comune transnaționale, politica translocală dincolo de statele națiuni, relațiile dintre Europa Centrală și de Est și regiunea araba din Orientul Mijlociu. Candidații:

-nu se aplică niciun criteriu de naționalitate sau de vârstă; cu toate acestea, candidatul trebuie să aibă reședința sau să lucreze în regiunea geografică euro-arabă și din Orientul Mijlociu (inclusiv Turcia);

- profesia solicitantului trebuie să fie una dintre următoarele: curator, artist, cercetător, operator cultural;

-cererile trebuie formulate de către persoane fizice și nu de organizații. Doar trei membri ai unui grup pot solicita un grant pentru același proiect;

- solicitanții pot primi doar trei granturi RCF și se admite o singură solicitare de persoană la fiecare apel;

- călătoria trebuie să se desfășoare în perioada Bienalei Varșovia, din martie până în iunie 2019;

- călătoria către o altă destinație din regiunea Europei Centrale și de Est și regiunea araba a Orientului Mijlociu este, de asemenea, posibilă dacă obiectivul călătoriei are o legătură tangibilă cu Bienala Varșovia.

Candidaturile pot fi redactate în arabă, engleză sau franceză.

Termen limită: 31 decembrie 2018.

Civil Society Projects explore innovative methods of citizens’ participation. The Civil Society Projects aims to support a variety of projects of a transnational and cross-sectoral dimension, directly involving citizens. Those projects should gather citizens from different horizons, who will act together or debate on common European issues, at local and European level.

This third measure is part of the Strand 2. Democratic engagement and civic participation within the “Europe for Citizens” 2014-2020 programme. This strand aims to foster European citizenship and improve conditions for civic and democratic participation at EU level, to encourage democratic participation of citizens at EU level and to support concrete participation in the EU policy-making process. 
The Civil Society Projects measure is directed at activities involving citizens and at bringing together people from local communities across Europe to share and exchange experiences, opinions and values, to learn from history and to build for the future. It encourages meetings, exchanges and debates among European citizens from different countries and through different means.
 

Volunteering is an essential element in active citizenship: by giving one’s time for the benefit of others, volunteers service their community and play an active role in society. They develop the sense of belonging to a community thereby also gaining ownership. Volunteering is therefore a particularly powerful means to develop citizens’ commitment to their society and to its political life. Civil society organisations, associations of a European general interest, town twinning associations and other participating organisations often rely on volunteer work to carry out and to develop their activities. Therefore, particular attention is paid to the promotion of volunteering, in particular through the European Solidarity Corps.
In its first phase, the European Solidarity Corps, the new EU initiative which aims at giving young people across the EU the opportunity to volunteer where help is needed and to respond to crisis situations, will build on existing EU programmes including the Europe for Citizens programme. In this context, project promoters are encouraged to make use of the European Solidarity Corps. 
Promoters making use of members of the European Solidarity Corps must comply with the requirements laid down by the European Solidarity Corps Charter, including the requirement relating to the insurance of the members. Indeed, within the framework of the Europe for Citizens Programme, the Agency does not provide directly or indirectly an insurance coverage to the volunteers/members used by the promoters for their projects. It is therefore for each promoter to ensure that the volunteers/members they are making use of are properly insured for their activities. 
All the eligible countries within the Europe for Citizens programme can participate to the European Solidarity Corps initiative.

2.3 - Civil Society Projects
The specific objectives are to support projects gathering citizens in activities directly linked to EU policies, providing an opportunity for direct participation in the policy making process.
A Civil Society Project must include at least two of the following three types of activities:
- promotion of societal engagement and solidarity: activities able to promoting debate/campaigns/actions on the themes of common interest in the larger framework of the rights and responsibilities of the Union citizens and making the link to the European political agenda and policy making process;
- gathering of opinions: activities aiming at gathering the individual opinions of the citizens on a specific topic to be yearly defined, favouring a bottom up approach (including the use of social networks, webinars, etc.) and media literacy;
- volunteering: activities promoting solidarity among Union citizens and beyond.

 

Applicant and partners
- Type of organisation: non-profit organisations, including civil society organisations, educational, cultural or research institutions, other organisations involved in the project can also be public local/regional authorities.
- Number of Partners: A project must involve organisations from at least 3 eligible countries of which at least two are an EU Member State.

Maximum eligible grant for a project: 150 000 EUR.
The activities must take place in any of the eligible countries.
The project must start within the relevant eligibility period.
Maximum project duration is 18 months.

 

Particpating countries
- 28 EU Member States: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom.
- Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Kosovo.
For British applicants: please be aware that eligibility criteria must be complied with for the entire duration of the grant. If the United Kingdom withdraws from the EU during the grant period without concluding an agreement with the EU ensuring in particular that British applicants continue to be eligible, British applicants will cease to receive EU funding (while continuing, where possible, to participate) or be required to leave the project.
The Programme is potentially open to the following categories of countries provided that they have signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Commission:
a) acceding countries, candidate countries and potential candidates, in accordance with the general principles and general terms and conditions for the participation of those countries in Union programmes established in the respective Framework Agreements, Association Council Decisions or similar Agreements;
b) the EFTA countries party to the EEA Agreement, in accordance with the provisions of that Agreement. 

 

Deadline: 1 September 2020, 17:00 CET, for projects starting between 1 March 2021 and 31 August 2021.

This action supports higher education institutions to create international study programmes for students at master level and award scholarships. Higher education institutions from at least three different Programme Countries* are invited to work together in consortia, to create and submit their proposal for Joint Master Degrees under the Erasmus+ programme.

An Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree (EMJMD) is a prestigious, integrated, international study programme, jointly delivered by an international consortium of higher education institutions (HEIs) and, where relevant, other partners with specific expertise and interest in the study programme.

EMJMDs aim to:

• Foster excellence, innovation, and internationalisation in HEIs
• Boost the attractiveness of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and support the EU's external action in the field of higher education
• Improve the level of competences and skills of Master graduates and their employability

Partnership between Erasmus Mundus and the Inter-University Exchange Project (IUEP) of the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT)
In 2019 for the first time, Erasmus Mundus opens up to a new partnership model in the form of a joint call EU-Japan. The purpose of the joint call will be to select excellent consortia of European and Japanese universities to develop highly integrated joint master programmes and offer scholarships to students. Mobility of students and scholars between the EU and Japanese universities involved in projects will be a key feature of the action.

The partnership will co-fund 3-4 projects which will foster innovation and excellence in provision of Joint Masters in consortia consisting of at least 3 higher education institutions from Erasmus+ Programme Countries and at least 1 higher education institution from Japan. 
In addition, the Japanese Higher education institution must be a master-degree awarding institution and award the joint or multiple diploma degree(s) together with at least one master-degree awarding higher education institution from a Programme Country.

Si tratta di un'opportunità per istituti di istruzione superiore per creare programmi di studio internazionali per studenti a livello di master e assegnare borse di studio. 
Un titolo di master congiunto Erasmus Mundus (EMJMD)65 è un programma di studio internazionale integrato di alto livello di 60, 90 o 120 crediti ECTS, offerto da un consorzio internazionale di IIS di paesi diversi e, se del caso, da altri partner, attivi o meno nel settore dell'istruzione, con competenza e interesse specifici nelle aree di studio/ambiti professionali oggetto del programma comune. La loro specificità consiste nel loro elevato livello di integrazione e nella loro natura congiunta66, nonché nel contenuto accademico di prim'ordine e nella metodologia che offrono.

Chi?
Il consorzio dovrà essere formato da:
- candidato/coordinatore: un istituto di istruzione superiore che presenta proposte di progetto per conto di tutti i partner;
- partner a pieno titolo: istituti di istruzione superiore riconosciuti che rilasciano il diploma di laurea magistrale e qualunque organizzazione privata o pubblica che contribuisca attivamente alla preparazione, implementazione e valutazione del programma;
- partner associati (facoltativo);
- entità affiliate (facoltativo).

Un’organizzazione partecipante può essere qualsiasi organizzazione pubblica o privata, con le sue entità affiliate (se presenti), con sede in un Paese aderente al Programma o in un Paese partner, che contribuisce direttamente e attivamente all’erogazione del programma EMJMD. Ad esempio: istituti di istruzione superiore (IIS); un’impresa pubblica o privata, di piccole, medie o grandi dimensioni (incluse le imprese sociali); un ente pubblico a livello locale, regionale o nazionale; un’organizzazione senza scopo di lucro, un’associazione o una ONG; un istituto di ricerca.

Informazioni sulle sovvenzioni
A seconda della durata del programma EMJMD (1 o 2 anni accademici) e del fatto che il consorzio scelga o meno di attivare un anno preparatorio, il consorzio riceverà una convenzione di sovvenzione per un minimo di 4 fino a un massimo di 6 anni per finanziare 4 cicli consecutivi di ammissione di studenti. In casi eccezionali, la durata di un EMJMD può essere estesa, su richiesta del richiedente/coordinatore e con l’accordo dell’Agenzia esecutiva, per un massimo di 12 mesi. In tal caso, la sovvenzione totale non cambierà.

Borse di studio per studenti di Master Congiunti Erasmus Mundus
La sovvenzione EMJMD finanzierà fino a massimo di 60 borse di studio per i quattro cicli di ammissione. I consorzi EMJMD possono inoltre presentare domanda per un massimo di 28 borse di studio aggiuntive per quattro cicli di ammissione per regioni/Paesi destinatari del mondo. Per quanto concerne i consorzi co-finanziati dall’UE e dal MEXT, l’UE finanzierà fino a un massimo di 32 borse di studio e altrettante saranno finanziate dal MEXT. Tali consorzi non possono fare domanda di borse di studio aggiuntive per regioni/Paesi destinatari del mondo.

Come? 
Le proposte per i Master Congiunti Erasmus Mundus devono essere presentate all'Agenzia Esecutiva Istruzione, Audiovisivi e Cultura entro il 14 Febbraio 2019 per progetti che hanno inizio il 1 Agosto e 31 Ottobre dello stesso anno.

Chi può partecipare
Un istituto di istruzione superiore (IIS) avente sede in un Paese aderente al Programma.

Le organizzazioni interessate devono leggere con attenzione le informazioni contenute nella Guida del Programma Erasmus+ .

Gli studenti che desiderano partecipare al programma devono contattare il proprio istituto di istruzione.

This action supports higher education institutions to create international study programmes for students at master level and award scholarships. Higher education institutions from at least three different Programme Countries* are invited to work together in consortia, to create and submit their proposal for Joint Master Degrees under the Erasmus+ programme.

An Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree (EMJMD) is a prestigious, integrated, international study programme, jointly delivered by an international consortium of higher education institutions (HEIs) and, where relevant, other partners with specific expertise and interest in the study programme.

EMJMDs aim to:

• Foster excellence, innovation, and internationalisation in HEIs
• Boost the attractiveness of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and support the EU's external action in the field of higher education
• Improve the level of competences and skills of Master graduates and their employability

Partnership between Erasmus Mundus and the Inter-University Exchange Project (IUEP) of the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT)
In 2019 for the first time, Erasmus Mundus opens up to a new partnership model in the form of a joint call EU-Japan. The purpose of the joint call will be to select excellent consortia of European and Japanese universities to develop highly integrated joint master programmes and offer scholarships to students. Mobility of students and scholars between the EU and Japanese universities involved in projects will be a key feature of the action.

The partnership will co-fund 3-4 projects which will foster innovation and excellence in provision of Joint Masters in consortia consisting of at least 3 higher education institutions from Erasmus+ Programme Countries and at least 1 higher education institution from Japan. 
In addition, the Japanese Higher education institution must be a master-degree awarding institution and award the joint or multiple diploma degree(s) together with at least one master-degree awarding higher education institution from a Programme Country.
