Answered by Josh MacAlister

The deadline for applying for the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE) for institutions intending to participate in the 2027 funding call was 24 March 2026. The ECHE is awarded by the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA). Applications are submitted directly to the EACEA via the EU Funding and Tenders Portal.

The guidance for higher education institutions on applying for the ECHE is published by the European Commission and is publicly available on its Erasmus+ webpages.
