  Today, the Commission published its 2019 call for proposals for the Erasmus+ programme. From an     expected budget of €3 billion for next year, €30 million has been set aside for dedicated European     Universities. This is a new initiative that was endorsed by European Union leaders at the Gothenburg     Social Summit last November, and part of the push towards establishing a European  Education Area by   2025.
 Tibor Navracsics, Commissioner for Education, Culture, Youth and Sport, said: "One year on, the     European Commission is delivering on the commitment made to Member States to build a European     Education Area by 2025. We are working towards a Europe where learning, studying and carrying out     research are not blocked by borders. No walls hampering excellence, innovation and inclusiveness in     education. European Universities have a real potential to transform the higher education landscape in     Europe, and I am proud that we are giving them a strong push through the Erasmus+ programme."
