The new Erasmus+ programme focuses on green mobility.
On this page you can find information and tips about green travel. You can also find links to other websites about green travel and sustainabilty in general.
Eurail and the Erasmus Student Network have teamed up to promote green travel among students with the Erasmus+ Interrail Pass. We invited Erasmus students to compete for a free Interrail Pass by engaging in creative activities centered around eco-friendly travel: producing a podcast, submitting stunning photos, or crafting a unique art piece.
Check out two of the highlights from our six amazing winning entries which include a poem and a picture:
"Travelling green, what does it mean?
I’m travelling by train, please let me explain
Through valleys deep and mountains high,
The train moves softly, passing by.
Less carbon trails, a greener way,
Preserving nature, day by day.
A choice that's kind, both near and far,
Protecting earth, our guiding star.
Travelling green, it means to care,
For every breath of fresh, clean air.
On trains we journey, pure and keen,
Embracing life, in shades of green."
