10:30 – 11:30 BST, 11 September 2026 ‐ 1 hour

Room: Castle 1, Crown Plaza Hotel, Ground floor

Session

Erasmus+ aims to make mobility a reality for all, yet evidence shows that participation and experiences vary based on socio-economic status, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation and region. So, how inclusive is Erasmus+? This session will bring together the student, university and national agency perspectives to tackle barriers to participation in mobility, exploring how practical, collaborative strategies can make mobility truly inclusive.
