Thanks for signing our petition!
We want to see significant changes in the mobility patterns of university students going on Erasmus+ exchange to reduce the environmental impact of the programme.
During the course of the Green Erasmus project (whic also developed this portal), we ran a petition calling for:
- Increasing the current €50 to a universal top up to individual support of up to €250 for green travel, proportionate to distance covered
- And increasing the current 4 days up to 7 days of additional individual support covering additional subsistence costs and/or accommodation needs linked to green travel - for the round trip
The petition was signed by 5257 people from over 100 countries, demonstrating the strength of support for these asks, and more broadly the desire to see a greener Erasmus+ programme.
Read more about the next steps for the petition asks in this article on the project website.
