This report contributes to the debate on how Erasmus+ activities and projects may stimulate civic engagement and political participation, amongst young people but also regarding adults. For this purpose, it is important to bring clarity on differences between social and civic engagement, and participation, on one hand, and political engagement and participation, on the other. The report reflects on the importance of engagement and participation for the project of European integration, disentangles the different dimensions of individual and collective engagement and participation, and briefly discusses how the Erasmus+ Programme relates to civic and political involvement.
