selection process - What Works Best for You?

DiscoverEU Inclusion Action effectively reaches young people with fewer opportunities. However, recruitment requires much more intensive outreach than standard Erasmus+ projects. Without cooperation with local organisations, schools, and youth workers, it is very difficult to reach the target groups, especially in smaller towns and rural areas.

In our experience, the most effective recruitment methods are visits to schools and direct contact with teachers, asking them to share information about the opportunity with their students. What works best in your organisation? Do you recruit nationally or mainly at the local/regional level? How do young people react when they hear about a free educational and travel experience? Are they generally enthusiastic, or do they have concerns and need additional encouragement before deciding to apply?
