Cooperation Partnerships

The Cooperation Partnerships action under the Erasmus+ Programme provides grants to organisations to collaborate across sectors in education, training, youth and sport. It aims to enable participants to gain international cooperation experience, strengthen capacities and deliver high-quality results. Projects typically involve three or more organisations from different EU member states or associated countries and can last between 12 and 36 months.

Funding is provided as lump-sum grants (total grant amounts of 120,000 EUR, 250,000 EUR and 400,000 EUR) for project activities; exact covered costs are not specified here.

Eligible organisations are public or private organisations established in an EU member state or in a third country associated to the programme, and must include at least three organisations from three different eligible countries.

Apply via the National Agency of the applicant's country (for non-European NGOs) or via the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) for European NGOs, through the EU Funding & Tenders Portal.
