26.03.2021. The Commission adopted the first annual work programme of Erasmus+ 2021-2027. 

With a budget of €26.2 billion, (compared to €14.7 billion for 2014-2020), complemented with about €2.2 billion from EU's external instruments, the new and revamped programme will fund learning mobility and cross-border cooperation projects for 10 million Europeans of all ages and all backgrounds. It will seek to be even more inclusive and to support the green and digital transitions, as set out in the "European Education Area".

18.03.2021 Tonight at 00:00 EET (23:00 for most of you, and 22:00 for our partners in the UK) the Positively Different Short Film Festival returns!

For 10 days, the festival's programme will be available on the customised portal we created to secure the best possible viewing experience.

In the challenging and confusing times we are going through, our only shelter is solidarity. Solidarity presupposes awareness. This is what you should expect from the PDSFF2021 programme: a thread of untold stories of characters, individuals and communities that help us better understand each other and call for our attention.
