Learning mobility
Learning mobility in the youth field is defined as mobility of young people (transnationally, regionally, or online) undertaken freely and voluntarily for a specific period of time, specifically organised for educational purposes, to impact on the local community or to acquire new competences (knowledge, skills, attitudes or values).
It encompasses a wide variety of project formats and activities and can be implemented in informal or non-formal education settings. The Youth Partnership coordinates the European Platform on Learning Mobility (EPLM). Its work of the EPLM is currently guided by the EPLM Framework of Action 2021-2030.
