The European Union Programmes Agency, EUPA, has just published the call for proposals deadlines for 2010 for the Lifelong Learning Programme and the Youth in Action Programme. These are available on the agency website at www.eupa.gov.mt. Proposals for projects approved through the various selection processes held during the year are funded with support from the European Commission (Directorate General Education and Culture).

The first deadlines are 15 January for Comenius and Grundtvig In-Service Training Courses, and Grundtvig Visits and Exchanges, both part of the Lifelong Learning Programme. These will be followed by Erasmus Intensive Language Courses, Leonardo da Vinci Mobility and the first round of the Youth in Action Programme. Details for each programme, including application forms, are available on the website.
