On 8 July 2009 the European Commission published a Green Paper on "Promoting the learning mobility of young people". The aim is to open up a debate on how best to boost the opportunities for young people in Europe to develop their knowledge and skills by spending time abroad.
With this Green Paper the Commission has launched a public consultation inviting all interested parties to comment on the issues and questions raised:
How can we convince more young people to spend time abroad?
What obstacles to mobility do we have to overcome?
How can all players involved – governments, education and training institutions, NGOs – join forces in a new partnership for learning mobility?
The consultation will be open until 15 December 2009.
