Conférence nationale pour le lancement d'Erasmus+
Paris, 29 septembre 2014
Mesdames et Messieurs les Ministres, Monsieur Villani, Madame et Monsieur les directeurs d'agence Mesdames, Messieurs,
C'est un grand plaisir pour moi d'ouvrir aujourd'hui cette conférence nationale sur Erasmus+, le nouveau programme Européen pour l'éducation, la formation, la jeunesse et le sport. Votre présence, Mesdames et Messieurs les Ministres, témoigne de l'engagement des autorités françaises vis-à vis d'Erasmus+, et je tiens au nom de la Commission à vous en remercier. Car, il faut le dire: sans l'engagement de la France, et notamment du Président François Hollande dans la négociation budgétaire et de Mme Fioraso aux moments cruciaux de la négociation technique du programme, Erasmus+ n'aurait pas le même visage.
