In the Activities section of the application form you are asked to provide details about the mobility activities you plan to organise and the amount of EU grant you are requesting to implement them

Activities must be planned for each region defined in the Regional Partnership section of the application.

You will first define the countries involved and activity categories (staff mobility or learner mobility) per region.

Each activity may contain one or more mobility flows, detailing the planned activities, including incoming or outgoing visit, number of participants, travel distance and time, and duration.

The individual support grant, top-up for fewer opportunities and travel grant are calculated for each flow based on the provided information.

Cumulative figures per region (total grant and total number of participants) are available after completion.
