The idea
The Erasmus Generation Meeting (EGM) is the largest student-led conference in Europe, where the Erasmus Generation meets to learn and discuss the future of mobility in Europe and beyond. It involves local, national, and European institutions, Erasmus+ alumni, and student representatives from all over the world. Being the flagship project of the Erasmus Student Network (ESN), EGM embodies the essence of the organisation: it reflects its core values and mission, which are represented in every action ESN undertakes. EGM serves as a platform to showcase ESN's impact and identity to external audiences and local communities. It empowers young people by providing a space for their voices to be heard and actively contributes to the enhancement of student mobility across the continent and beyond.
