An Ireland South MEP says the expansion of the Erasmus programme is a big boost.
MEPs recently approved improvements to the programme, including doubling its funding for the next seven years.
MEP Deirdre Clune says this will offer an opportunity for Irish people to engage more in Europe, as it will be simpler and more manageable for applicants.
