The aim of the International Programme is to support projects that contribute to the development and improvement of the Swiss education system through cooperation between one or more Swiss institutions and one or more European or non-European institutions. The cooperation projects aim for instance to:

• establish and consolidate inter-institutional networks;
• propose new processes or ways of working within the participating institutions through the exchange of experience and best practice;
• develop training materials, new teaching approaches or new opportunities to be tested and, ideally, implemented;
• produce guides or charters for the fields and actors represented by the institutions participating in the project.

This list is not exhaustive, as all projects are designed according to the needs of the participating Swiss institutions.

Application deadlines: 28 march 2024

Preparatory visits

Staff of Swiss organisations planning to participate in a project can apply for financial support to visit future partner organisations before the project is submitted, in order to establish contacts and prepare projects with partners.
