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.

The fifth edition of the Erasmus Generation Meeting, Europe’s largest student-led conference on the Internationalisation of Higher Education, focuses on Shaping Skills through Student Mobility. The event amplifies the Erasmus Generation’s role in shaping how competences are built through volunteering and student-led mobility, while advancing the impact and recognition of student engagement among key stakeholders.

A true treasure of the Adriatic coast, Split has a breath of history in every stone. It is a living, breathing relic in modern times, with its ancient walls, narrow alleys and sun-warmed rooftops all perfectly encapsulating the timelessness of this living symbol.
