The European Commission recently came out with the Guidelines 2021 of the Erasmus plus that contain the rules for the European project activities of next Septennate (we attach it at the bottom).
School of Robotics is ready to participate. We are preparing, with some European partners, our applications to be submitted in the Call with deadlines 11 and 20 May 2021.
The General Objectives of the Guidelines:
The general objective of the Programme is to support, through lifelong learning, the educational, professional and personal development of people in education, training, youth and sport, in Europe and beyond, thereby contributing to sustainable growth, quality jobs and social cohesion, to driving innovation, and to strengthening European identity and active citizenship.

    Communicating projects and their results to maximise impact
    Erasmus+ Open Access Requirement for educational materials
    Erasmus+ Open Access for research and data
are topics and methodologies that School of Robotics already applies.
School of Robotics in Italy is interested in expanding the Partnership with the Nations in the EU area, Associated Countries and Partner Countries (see Partner Countries, pg. 33-35 of the attached Guideline) and we can be technical-scientific Partner in all projects that concern the topics of Digital Transformation, Inclusion and Diversity and Environment, and in projects that have as objectives the support of STEM and STEAM (Arts) learning, Media Literacy, responsible use of new media and social, understanding and use of software, and application of digital and robotic technologies to teaching.
