List of Erasmus+ National Focal Points

Graeme Robertson-Liersch
Graeme Robertson-Liersch • 11 January 2024
Erasmus+ National Focal Points (ENFPs) are representatives of the education sector in countries and territories in Africa, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and the Americas. The European Commission has been working since 2022 with countries and territories in these regions to designate ENFPs.

 

Role

If you are from a country or territory in one of these regions, the ENFP can help you find out about how you or your organisation can take part in Erasmus+.

The Commission supports ENFPs in this task, and to organise events to promote Erasmus+ and show what projects are doing.

 

Don't see your region here?

Your country or territory is probably served by a National Erasmus+ Office in countries neighbouring the EU.
