The EU Delegation to Algeria is organizing an information day in Algiers on 31 January, in collaboration with the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (MESRS), about the ERASMUS+ regional programme. This programme, which has been running for the past two years, “supports universities in their efforts to modernise their systems and programmes via transnational partnerships”, and “offers additional opportunities to students”, according to the Delegation’s press release.

“The Erasmus+ programme is receiving 16.5 billion euros in financing for the 2014-2020 period, out of which more than 17% will be spent on the activities of its international components”, the Delegation notes.
 
The aim is to enable the attending universities and all partners in the educational sector to become more familiar with ERASMUS+, which is the successor to Erasmus Mundus and Tempus.
 
The information day about the programme will be held under the patronage of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research and with the participation of the European Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).
