Eurodesk

Eurodesk has 39 offices in 37 countries and a network of more than 2.000 multipliers. In those centres/offices the Eurodesk multipliers carry out Eurodesk's mission which is ‘to raise awareness among young people on learning mobility opportunities and encourage them to become active citizens.’[6] The Eurodesk network provides young people with support and information about actual mobility opportunities in Europe and world-wide. Furthermore, they offer opportunities to participate in European youth dialogues and consultations and develop their own youth projects. It manages a database of opportunities called the “Eurodesk Opportunity Finder”[7] with over 250 programmes open to young people in Europe. Each year, the Eurodesk network carries out a European campaign “Time to Move” [8] aimed to inform young people about such opportunities.
