MOBILITY & INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGE Programmes

Erasmus KA171 Partner Countries Incoming Staff

Cofinançat pel programa Erasmus + de la UE

The Erasmus+ Programme of the European Commission promotes the mobility of students and lecturers.

The action Erasmus+ KA171 of this program provides funding for exchange mobility with partner countries.

The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) has been awarded with scholarships under the action KA171 therefore students and staff from our partner universities have the opportunity to fund their exchanges to our institution.

Types of mobilities:

The available grants are to undertake a stay of 5 days (plus 1 or 2 travelling days) to make a:

  • Staff Mobility for Training (STT): enables teaching staff and administrative staff a period of training to learn from colleagues and experts.
  • Staff Mobility for Teaching (STA): teaching staff participates by giving a minimum of 8 hours of teaching activities
  • Teaching / Training Combined: teaching staff participates by giving a minimum of 4 hours of teaching activities and doing 4 hours of training.

The Spanish agency for Erasmus+ SEPIE offers institutions and organizations participating in the Erasmus+ program specific support on topics related to inclusion (special needs, refugees, people with less resources), which you will find in this link. In this document you will find more information.

Participants, students and teaching and administrative staff, will be able to present documentation to receive additional mobility aid. Inclusion support is financial support to cover additional costs for students and staff with fewer opportunities who participate in mobility activities of the Erasmus+ program. To access this support, participants must have a recognized and legally qualified disability of a degree equal to or greater than 33%, or suffer from physical, mental or health problems duly certified through the corresponding medical certification, as well as comply with the rest of admissibility criteria established in the Program.

The amount will cover 100% of the actual subsidized costs that are requested, directly related to your disability, provided that they are not covered through the budgetary categories of "travel" (if applicable) and "individual support", including the additional aid for students with fewer opportunities. (Among the subsidized expenses are the following: special/adapted transportation of the participant in the host country, escorts, professional services, preparatory visits and other expenses.)

Request the additional allowance using this form, for the Erasmus KA131 and KA171 program.

All participants who request "Apoyo a la inclusión" based on actual costs will have to prove their degree of disability and documentably justify to the institution of higher education of origin or coordinator of the mobility consortium the actual expenses corresponding to the amount of the additional aid received .
