Calvia prepares for year of involvement in European youth exchange programme, Erasmus+

As well as being an idyllic place to live, Calvia offers fascinating study opportunities, which has been recognized by the council leaders in the decision to develop a new partnership with the Erasmus+ educational programme.

Calvià town hall announced that 38 young people from the city will participate in Erasmus+ educational exchanges in 2023. Young people have the opportunity to travel to two different European destinations for Erasmus+ experiences before the city welcomes its own group of students.

The council announced its participation in Europe’s largest educational exchange program at a conference on Tuesday, January 24, saying the city will participate in a cycle of three exchange events.

During the first event, 38 Calvia students will travel to Hollola in Finland in February for a nine-day project investigating the sociological similarities and differences between Finland and Spain. The second project will have students participate in a multiculturalism project in Besançon, near the French Alps, in July.

The educational cycle will close in December with Calvia welcoming students from all over Europe for another multicultural program.
