In the Activities section of the application form you are asked to provide information on the foreseen mobility activities you plan to organise, the number of participants and exceptional costs.

First you must select which activities you plan to perform in your project. The activity types you can choose from depend on the field you are applying for (School Education (SCH), Vocational Education and Training (VET) or Adult Education (ADU)). 

At activity level you must then specify the number of participants and the number of accompanying persons (if applicable) as well as the duration of the participation of each person and specify whether persons will participate in preparatory visits.

For each activity you will then provide further activity details, such as the number of participants with fewer opportunities, participants involved in blended mobility activities and/or whether green travel will be used. 

At the end you can request coverage of various exceptional costs and inclusion support.

Once all the information has been filled in, review the participants and requested budget for each activity.
