ASOCIAȚIA Grupul Verde

Your partner in Romania, for organisations in Germany

· Erasmus+ · Vrancea

From Germany to Vrancea, one project at a time.

Our partner WECF has an office in Munich, so German organisations are one step away from a network we already work with. We are an NGO in Vrancea, Romania, working on digital and environmental education for children and young people in rural Vrancea.

FAQ

What partners ask us.

Have you worked with organisations from Germany?

Yes. Our partner WECF (Women Engage for a Common Future) has a German office in Munich. Together we run GreenCode for Fairer Futures, on technology, climate and equal opportunities.

Which Erasmus+ agency handles projects from Germany?

It depends on the sector: PAD – Pädagogischer Austauschdienst (school education); NA beim BIBB (vocational education and adult learning); DAAD (higher education); JUGEND für Europa (youth and the European Solidarity Corps). The Romanian partner applies through ANPCDEFP when it is the coordinator.

How do we start?
