What partners ask us.

Have you worked with organisations from France?

Yes. Fondation Orange funded our Digital Education & AI Training Hub at the Orange Digital Center in Vrancea: more than 360 participants, contract 2024-MD-INT-050. Our “Green Futures” file (ID 407) is Romania’s official nomination for the UNESCO King Hamad Prize 2026, made by the Romanian National Commission for UNESCO.

Which Erasmus+ agency handles projects from France?

It depends on the sector: Agence Erasmus+ France / Education Formation (education and training, Bordeaux); Agence Erasmus+ France / Jeunesse & Sport (youth, sport and the European Solidarity Corps, Paris). The Romanian partner applies through ANPCDEFP when it is the coordinator.
