Erasmus forms part of the EU Lifelong Learning Programme and comprises actions intended to bring about European cooperation in the higher-education sector. At present, Erasmus gives mobility scholarships to thousands of students, with emphasis laid on the academic recognition of studies. In this regard, it is worth pointing out that in October 2009 the European Commission celebrated the fact that the number of Erasmus students at European level had reached 2 000 000. The Erasmus experience is a unique and personal intercultural and university experience, not only for those who have participated in the programme, but also for those who are motivated to sign up. The problem of financing is critical, especially at a time of economic crisis. The European Union must endeavour to put in place the funds necessary for the Erasmus programme to continue over the 2014-2020 period. ‘Social criteria’ must become part of the Erasmus grant award process to enable students on low incomes to benefit from periods of mobility without having to worry about the lack of adequate financial resources. Young people are the foundation of Europe, and it needs qualified young people. To that end, we need to invest in education so that young people can benefit from jobs that are appropriate to their qualifications."@en1
