The green priority
Fighting global warming
To combat global warming, the European Union has adopted a strategy to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. Called the Green Pact for Europe, this strategy is based in part on European programs, including Erasmus+.
A Commitment to Sustainability
The Erasmus+ 2021-2027 program will strive to limit its own impact on
the environment, by promoting sustainable modes of transport and more responsible
behavior, but also by equipping citizens with the skills and competencies
needed to contribute to environmental sustainability.
The 3 axes of implementation
Eco-responsibility
SALTO Green disseminates key information on climate change and environmental protection to be taken into account in the Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps programs.
Education for sustainable development
SALTO Green improves sustainability education and accelerates green habits. Erasmus+ projects and the European Solidarity Corps integrate the green dimension through tools and training.
Developing new skills and professions
SALTO Green acts to make jobs greener thanks to new skills, but also to support the growth of green jobs in our future.
