WHAT TO DO AFTER YOUR DiscoverEU EXPERIENCE

The train has pulled into the station for the final time, your

ticket is expiring and you’re down to your last pair of clean

socks – it’s safe to say that your DiscoverEU journey has

come to an end. But the adventure is far from over

(in fact it has only just begun!) The EU offers loads of

opportunities to enable you to keep meeting new people, learning new languages and

experiencing new things.

Here’s your handy guide to help you choose which

EU opportunity might be the best next step for you.

…meeting new people, discovering new cultures, learning new languages?

Then why not consider taking part in an Erasmus+ youth exchange?

Erasmus+ youth exchanges enable groups of young people to meet, collaborate and work together on projects over a period of between 5 and 21 days.

…giving something back to the communities I visited and learning about what it means to be European?

Sounds like the European Solidarity Corps would be the perfect adventure!

To volunteer, train or work on solidarity-based projects, look no further than the European Solidarity Corps. The programme is designed to offer opportunities to young people who want to bring about positive change.

…trying new things, solving problems and becoming independent?

Then visit EURES – the European Job Mobility Portal – for job opportunities abroad.

Did you know that there are 3.5 million job opportunities through nearly 15,000 employers across Europe available via EURES? If your DiscoverEU experience made you hungry for a new challenge abroad, why not consider uploading your CV to find a job in a different country?

…learning new skills and finding inspiration in cities across Europe?

Perhaps you could try Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs!

Does spending up to 6 months working with a business in a different country sound like the perfect opportunity to sharpen your entrepreneurial knowledge? Then join the 23,000 young people who have taken part in Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs since 2009.

…being an ambassador and representing young people in Europe?

Take part in a Youth Dialogue project!

Youth Dialogue projects aim to promote young people’s role in European democratic life. If you want to speak to decision-makers to have a say on the future of Europe, then a Youth Dialogue project could be the answer.
