15:00–16:00 Green travel information session for students going on an Erasmus+ exchange
Are you heading off on exchange and interested in travelling in a sustainable way to your exchange destination and/or back to Finland from there? If you haven't yet travelled by land across countries, it can be difficult to know where and how to begin.The first approximately 15 minutes will be used to go through the eligibility criteria for the Erasmus+ green travel additional grant and to share practical travel planning tips. After that, the remaining time is reserved for independent work, during which you can start outlining your own travel plan right away. Support will be available throughout the entire hour, so you can get immediate help with any questions or need for guidance that arise during the planning process.
Cannot make it to the orientation?
The orientation will be recorded apart from the country-specific orientations. Please find the recordings here: for Thu 23 April and for Fri 24 April.
NB! The language of the sessions was Finnish, apart from the last 30 minutes of Fri 24 April. The recordings will be available until 11 May.
The slides in English will be/have been updated to the orientation timetable above, next to each session.
