Learning Mobility of Young People"
Title : Consultation on the Green Paper on Promoting
the Learning Mobility of Young People
Policy fields : Education, Culture and Youth
Target groups : The consultation is open to individual
citizens and organisations and in particular stakeholders from
national governments, local and regional authorities,
organisations, associations and enterprises.
Period of consultation : From 15.07.2009 to
15.12.2009
Objective of the consultation The Green Paper on Promoting the Learning Mobility of Young
People is being put forward with a view to raising a wide number
of issues linked to the learning mobility of young Europeans in
all disciplines and contexts.
The European Commission is calling upon all stakeholders,
from governments to individuals, to support its efforts to make
youth mobility the rule rather than the exception. While
recognising that this is challenging objective in the current
economic context, learning mobility is a key element in the
overall strategy to equip Europe with the skills needed for the
future.
This Green Paper highlights a number of areas where further
efforts are required. Many of these efforts imply action at
national, regional and institutional levels, as well as the
active involvement of civil society, business and other
stakeholders.
Suggestions of possible courses of action which could be
explored at different levels are put forward. These are intended
to stimulate feedback and are not meant to be exhaustive. All
interested parties are welcome to contribute to this debate and
put forward their options for the future. The Commission will
carefully evaluate the feedback to the consultation and prepare
a proposal for the practical follow-up.
