WHAT ARE PARTNERSHIPS FOR COOPERATION?
This action enables participating organisations to gain experience in international cooperation and to strengthen their capacities, but also to produce high-quality innovative deliverables. Depending on the objectives of the project, the participating organisations involved, or the expected impact, among other elements, Partnerships for Cooperation can be of different sizes and scope, and adapt their activities accordingly. The qualitative assessment of these projects will be proportional to the objectives of the cooperation and the nature of the organisations involved.
Two types of partnerships are offered to organisations to work, learn and grow together:
– Cooperation Partnerships
– Small-scale Partnerships
CONTRIBUTION OF THIS ACTION TO ACHIEVING POLICY PRIORITIES
On a yearly basis, the European Commission sets common priorities and objectives to be pursued at the level of the Erasmus+ Programme in different fields of education, training, youth and sport. Therefore, apart from developing capacities of organisations involved in the project, partnerships for cooperation aim at contributing with their results toward achieving the priorities.

– Inclusion and diversity in all fields of education, training, youth and sport;
– Environment and fight against climate change;

OBJECTIVES OF THE ACTION
– Increasing quality in the work, activities, and practices of organisations and institutions involved, opening up to new actors, not naturally included within one sector;
