Key Action 3: Support for policy reform

Key Action 3 provides grants for a wide variety of actions aimed at stimulating innovative policy development, policy dialogue and implementation, and the exchange of knowledge in the fields of education, training and youth. The majority of them are managed by the EACEA. Most of the actions under KA3 are managed outside the annual general call for proposals.

The three main instruments that are managed through specific calls for proposals:

  • Initiatives for policy innovation,
  • forward-looking cooperation projects,
  • European policy experimentations.

Joint Qualifications in Vocational Education and Training (VET)
