  • Reaction of the Erasmus Student Network to the New Erasmus+ Programme
    Reaction of the Erasmus Student Network to the new Erasmus+ Programme On the 30th of May 2018, the European Commission presented its proposal1 for the Erasmus+ Successor Programme, running from 2021 to 2027. This document serves as a basis for the work of the European Parliament, European Council, and all civil society organisations involved in the field. Other documents, such as Annual Work Plans or Programme Guides, will complement the information provided by the European Commission, all leading to the final adoption of the programme, expected to happen in 2019. In this reaction, ESN presents its views to the proposal put forward by the European Commission with a special focus on the higher education chapter of Erasmus+. ESN has contributed to the discussion on the Erasmus+ successor programme through its #ErasmusUpgrade Manifesto2. The document is based on an online consultation that reached more than 1000 students directly, and from a series of face-to-face dialogues involving students and volunteers from across ESN’s 40 member countries. The preliminary results of the consultation were presented to the European Commission during a preparatory meeting in August 2017 and publicly discussed during the #ErasmusUpgrade Training and Conference in Brussels in October 2017. This event was attended by representatives from 25 European countries, both EU and non-EU member states, who analysed the results of the consultation and discussed them with decision-makers involved in the revision of the Erasmus+ programme. These participants produced a series of 13 recommendations which are the base for our comments to the programme proposed by the European Commission.

  • Energising Europe: Raising Climate Ambition and Boosting Energy Solutions for Growth ONLINE / 26-27 June 2020
    Energising Europe: raising climate ambition and boosting energy solutions for growth ONLINE / 26-27 June 2020 ABOUT THE EVENT The world has become a better place. In fact, people are wealthier, healthier and well fed. We travel easier and feel more interconnected to each other. However, our improved standard came with a hefty price, causing a great damage to the earth and thus brought the climate change. As liberals, we are the foremost promoters of the globalized world. Therefore, it is of crucial importance that liberalism remains relevant in the debate regarding climate change by presenting ideas that demonstrate how our ideology can tackle it. Solutions and preventing climate change through liberal principles will be exactly the core of this project. The aim is to highlight how trade, a strong economy and an open progressive world are compatible with sustainable development. However, it is of equal importance to present and be aware of what challenges lie ahead of us. EVENT SCHEDULE Friday 26 June 2020 15:00 Welcome and objective setting Daniel Kaddik, Executive Director, ELF Dan-Aria Sucuri, Vice-President LYMEC 15:20 Is liberalism the answer to sustainability? Marie Bjerre, MP, Venstres Denmark Louise Grabo, Secretary General, Swedish FinTech Association Moderator: Laia Comerma, Events and Training Officer LYMEC 16:20 Short break 16:30 Interactive session – Liberal perspectives on the LYMEC policy book on climate and energy Ruben Henriksson, Chief assistant, FORES Climate Program 17:45 Wrap-up of the first day Dan-Aria Sucuri, Vice-President

Given that various sectors of education and the youth sector faced distinct challenges, there are valuable lessons to be learnt from policy responses and best practices across Europe. The common goal should be to build more resilient education systems, which are responsive and adaptive to future crises. This document was requested by the European Parliament's Committee on Culture and Education.

  • Claiming a Stronger Erasmus for the Empowerment of the Future Generation of Europeans
    Claiming a stronger Erasmus for the empowerment of the future generation of Europeans Reaction of the Erasmus Student Network and the European Students’ Union to the proposed Erasmus+ budget in the Multiannual Financial Framework 2021-2027 On 14 February 2020, the President of the European Council Charles Michel unveiled his draft European Council conclusions for the multiannual budget of the EU for 2021-2027. The document addresses, for the first time, the financial outlook envisioned by the Council for the next multiannual financial framework, including the budget for the successor Erasmus+ Programme. In this reaction, ESN and ESU present their view on the initial budgetary proposal put forward by the European Council with regards to the proposed funding for Erasmus+, with a particular focus on the higher education and youth sectors. ESN and ESU have been contributing to the discussions on the new Erasmus+ Programme in multiple ways. In 2018, ESN’s #ErasmusUpgrade Manifesto was published, consisting of 13 base recommendations for the revised Erasmus+ Programme, which were used as a guide for advocacy on the topic1. ESN and ESU took part in the Erasmusх10 campaign2, coordinated by the European Youth Forum and the Lifelong Learning Platform and supported by 70 civil society organisations, which called upon the European decision-makers to increase the Erasmus Programme funding tenfold. In 2019, in response to the original proposal by the European Commission, ESN published a reaction paper, where the necessity for more investment in the new Erasmus+ Programme was emphasized3. This position has been reiterated in a joint position paper of ESN and ESU4.

  • Info-Sheet Students' Housing in Europe
    1 Info-Sheet Students’ Housing in Europe The students’ perspective on the overall situation, main challenges and ​ national best practises . Photo by Leah Kelley from Pexels ​ ​ ​ 2 The current state of play with regards to student housing in Europe “Accommodation costs continue to be one of the most important if not the most important expenditure item for students especially for those who live away from their parents. ” EUROSTUDENT VI” ​ When looking at the current situation linked to affordable, sufficient and high-quality students’ housing in Europe we can see a number of clear patterns affecting the issue in almost all of the countries that answered our survey. In general, students experience an ongoing rise in rent prices especially in bigger European cities where most higher education institutions are located. Insufficient provision of student housing and a universal lack of vacancies on the housing market aggravate the problem. The situation is particularly terrifying for internationals students that encounter vast difficulties when trying to access the housing market in a variety of countries. International students suffer from structural discrimination and rejection on the basis of racial discrimination both from landlords and fellow students who prefer to share their dormitory with students that share the same mother tongue. The substantial lack of available students’ accommodation and the continuous rise of housing costs appears to be the biggest overall issue in the assessed countries. National Unions of Students (NUS) furthermore report student dormitories with extremely low living standards right up to facilities that possess threats to tenant’s wellbeing. Student unions all over Europe are united in the fight for more affordable high-quality students housing.

  • The Future Is Europe
    LYMEC Electoral Manifesto THE FUTURE IS EUROPE Events in the last years have clearly shown that Europe is experiencing a crisis of solidarity, a crisis of togetherness and a crisis of short-sighted visions. It has been a time of rising national egoism, populist agendas and hate-speech. Recent geopolitical shifts have made it clear that we can no longer rely on some of our default allies in solving conflicts in the European neighbourhood. We are living in a time of post-truth news realities, and challenges to personal data and cyber security. It is more than evident that to protect our Union of freedom, justice and democracy, we need to reform it. For that, we need all pro-European, progressive voices to actively involve citizens to bring about change in the European Union and the way we think about Europe. We need the energy and optimism of young people; only together can we turn the European Union into one that better delivers upon our concerns. There is no other way forward - the future is Europe. LYMEC, European Liberal Youth, is a pan-European youth organisation dedicated to the promotion and strengthening of liberal values in Europe. LYMEC aims to strengthen the cooperation of young liberals and to unite the efforts of young people in building a better and more liberal political, social and economic environment for all Europeans. We strive to ensure more youth engagement and civil participation; we are guided by the principles of individual freedoms, coupled with responsibilities. Only in a state of freedom are people able to realise their true potential, and only by taking our fair share of responsibilities can we form an ever-perfect, inclusive, merit-based society.
