ELGPN

Members and partners

Membership of the network is open to the countries eligible for assistance under the Erasmus+ Programme 2014-2020. The participating countries designate their representatives in the network. In order to fulfill the objectives of the network, representatives should:

  • be able to represent a lifelong learning perspective (preferably covering education, training and employment for both young people and adults).
  • be clearly linked to relevant policy-making processes within their country.
  • have the capacity both to contribute to the activities of the network and to involve the relevant national stakeholders in the education, training and employment sectors, including the social partners and guidance practitioners.
The working assumptions are that within the ELGPN meetings each national delegation will comprise no more than three persons to achieve the necessary representativeness and that they will include governmental and non-governmental representatives. Where national co-ordination bodies or fora exist, these will provide a suitable basis for the composition of national delegations.  

Countries which are eligible for membership but choose not to exercise this option may participate as observers.
The list of the member countries (see the contact of each country by clicking the country acronym) : AT, BE, BG, CH, CY, CZ, DE, DK, EE, EL, ES, FI, FR, HR, HU, IE, IS, IT, LV, LT, LU, MT, NL, NO, PL, PT, RO, RS, SE, SI, SK
