Manfredonia is opening up to new opportunities thanks to GEM – Gargano Europe Mobility, the agency bringing the Erasmus+ programme to our region. This is an important step that transforms the city into a key destination for anyone wanting a formative experience in a unique setting.

Erasmus+: an opportunity for growth for students and the region

Erasmus+ is the European Union programme that supports international mobility to promote learning and professional growth. Every year, thousands of young people choose to go abroad for an internship or a period of study, enriching their cultural background and improving their language skills.

GEM: a bridge between Manfredonia and Europe

GEM – Gargano Europe Mobility coordinates and promotes Erasmus+ projects, offering support to students, teachers, and the organizations involved. The objective is to guarantee high-quality formative experiences, monitor projects, and encourage participation in mobility programmes.

Manfredonia is an ideal setting to welcome European students and interns: schools of all levels, accommodation facilities ready to host participants, and a strategic position that makes it easy to reach places of great historical and cultural value, such as the UNESCO heritage site of Monte Sant'Angelo. A perfect mix for a truly immersive study and work experience.

An opportunity for the city's future

The arrival of Erasmus+ is not just a great opportunity for the young people who choose Manfredonia, but also for the city itself. In addition to enhancing the local area and its resources, it promotes a more conscious and sustainable form of tourism, composed of people who don't just visit, but who choose to stay for weeks or months, fully experiencing local life.
