Erasmus+ grants cover 100% of travel, accommodation, food, cultural activities and local transport. Your young people participate at zero cost.

How the partnership works

A simple, transparent process from first contact to your young people's return.

1

Initial meeting

We meet (online or in person) to understand your organisation, your young people's profile and what kind of experience you're looking for. No commitment required at this stage.

2

Programme matching

We identify the right Erasmus+ programme (KA152 youth exchange, ESC volunteering or KA153 mobility for youth workers) and match it with a suitable European partner organisation.

3

Partnership agreement

We sign a formal partnership agreement defining roles, responsibilities and timelines. CLAVE acts as coordinating or sending organisation depending on the project structure.

4

Preparation & selection

We help you select and prepare participants: motivation letter workshops, pre-departure briefings, language preparation and intercultural orientation.

5

Programme & follow-up

Your young people complete the programme with full support. On their return, we facilitate reintegration, Youthpass reflection sessions and impact documentation.

"Partnering with CLAVE was the best decision we made for our youth group. Three of our members went to Portugal, came back transformed, and are now leading projects in our community."
