National Erasmus+ Office Participated at Education Week

At the end of last week, the National Erasmus+ Office (NEO) in Moldova took part at the Education Week, organised by the Ministry of Education and Research of the Republic of Moldova. The events focused on higher education, vocational education and training (VET), and sports. NEO’s participation aimed to promote the opportunities offered by the Erasmus+ programme and highlight its impact on Moldova’s education sector.

On 22 May, at the Institute of Physical Education and Sport, NEO presented the Erasmus+ opportunities in the field of sport, emphasizing projects that promote social inclusion, international cooperation, and an active lifestyle. Moldovan organisations can benefit from these initiatives through EU-supported capacity-building projects in sport.

On 23 May, during the event dedicated to vocational education and training (VET) institutions, several Erasmus+ projects already implemented in the country were showcased: HABITABLE, REBUILD, PPF-VET, S.E. VET, among others. These initiatives contribute to the modernisation of educational processes, strengthen links with the labor market, and enhance the skills of students and teaching staff.

Additionally, examples of student mobility activities carried out under one of the above-mentioned projects were presented. These experiences support young people's professional development and give them access to best educational practices from across Europe.

The participation of the National Erasmus+ Office in these events contributed to strengthening the dialogue with education institutions and actively promoting the Erasmus+ programme in key sectors of education in the Republic of Moldova.
