Erasmus+ Green Travel Support
The Erasmus+ programme offers Green Travel Support for people travelling to their destination using sustainable modes of transport. Examples of sustainable means of transport are: cycling, carpooling, the bus or the train. To qualify for Green Travel Support, you must use sustainable means of transport for most of your journey (outward and return).
Green Travel Support is available if your destination lies within 100 km to 4000 km travel distance.
