Strategic Partnerships Sectoral and cross-sectoral structured cooperation (education, training and youth

+ other relevant stakeholders) to implement innovative practices leading to high quality teaching, training and learning, institutional modernisation and social innovation

Activities ranging from small scale projects (i.e. allowing access for newcomers) to more ambitious, larger scale projects

Fully decentralised management to enable better consideration of the national context and achieve maximum impact

In Higher Education they aim at supporting HEIs in order to achieve the objectives set under the HE Modernisation Agenda
