The general objective of the European Commission’s Erasmus+ program in the university sector is to contribute to sustainable growth, quality jobs, social cohesion and the promotion of innovation through training. As such, the program supports the implementation of strategic university cooperation between European and African higher education institutions (public and private universities as well as vocational training institutions).

The next Erasmus+ event for sub-Saharan Africa is scheduled to take place in Abidjan from 26 to 28 June 2024, with the aim of:

• highlight opportunities for cooperation between Europe and sub-Saharan Africa,
• foster contacts between African and European institutions,
• and thus encourage the development of Erasmus+ projects.

Meetings, exchanges, and discussions with the focal points of the Erasmus program together with officials in Brussels, African, and European higher education institutions, are planned throughout these days.
