FAQ

What partners ask us.

Have you worked with organisations from Belgium?

Yes. EduHack 2025 was an official DigiEduHack event, a hackathon series on the future of digital education supported by the European Commission.

Which Erasmus+ agency handles projects from Belgium?

It depends on the sector: Epos (education and training, Flemish Community); JINT (youth, Flemish Community); AEF-Europe (education and training, French-speaking Community); BIJ – Bureau International Jeunesse (youth, French-speaking Community); Jugendbüro der Deutschsprachigen Gemeinschaft (youth, German-speaking Community). The Romanian partner applies through ANPCDEFP when it is the coordinator.
