Erasmus+ Programme
- Question
-
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether the United Kingdom will be participating in the Erasmus+ programme’s European Solidarity Corps.
- Answer
-
On 17 December 2025 the UK announced the conclusion of negotiations on the UK’s association to Erasmus+. This commitment covers 2027, the final year in the EU Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF). Under the current MFF, the European Solidarity Corps is a distinct programme to which the UK is not associated.
The European Commission has proposed that the European Solidarity Corps will become part of Erasmus+ in the next MFF, covering 2028-34, although the EU’s internal negotiations on programme design are continuing. Any association by the UK to Erasmus+ in the next MFF is a matter for future decisions and negotiation.
