Growing Access Inclusion Network

Growing Access Inclusion Network aims to build on the work carried out through another two KA2 projects of ‘YAG’ and ‘GAIN’ to facilitate an active engagement with the issue of access and participation amongst Fewer Opportunity Youngsters to Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps projects.
