Cooperation EU-Canada
The EU-Canada Cooperation Programme in Higher Education, Training and Youth aims at promoting understanding between the peoples of the European Union and Canada and improving the quality of their human resource development.
The EU-Canada Programme is administered jointly by the European Commission’s Directorate General for Education and Culture (DG EAC) and by Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC), in conjunction with the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade. The new programme plans to implement roughly 210 projects with some 4.500 EU and Canadian individuals participating in mobility activities over the eight year period from 2006 to 2013.
Consortium projects will continue to be a cornerstone of the new programme. Important new dimensions are added, such as measures to foster an in-depth dialogue on policy issues, new activities in the area of youth, and the establishment of an alumni association to help keep former grantees in long-term touch with one another and to promote the co-operation scheme among future generations of students.
