Inklusive and green mobility

When planning a stay abroad as part of one’s studies or work at the University for Continuing Education Krems, the principles of inclusion and diversity apply. This means that the conditions for studying, learning or temporarily working abroad should be appropriate for all interested people by addressing their individual needs.

Our Inclusive Mobility Kit is designed to facilitate this. Especially underrepresented or disadvantaged groups as well as individuals with fewer opportunities shall receive access to existing support structures and grants. 

If a stay abroad is planned within the study or work context at University for Continuing Education Krems, the principle of responsible travel applies. This Green Mobility Kit complements this aspect and endorses using rail and bus travel for international business or study stays, especially regarding destinations under
750 km, but also to offers tools for finding the most environmentally friendly solution for participation in courses, conferences, network meetings, continuing education, etc. Whether and how to travel best, as well as where to find funding and advice at the university on this topic, is demonstrated by means of a video and a map of Europe with Green Cities. The long-term goal is to ensure environmentally friendly international travel and reduce the ecological footprint of travelers.

Erasmus+ further promotes green travel with top-ups for students and staff. Details are available upon request at  international@donau-uni.ac.at. 

In order for you to start your mobility journey the best way possible, the Erasmus Student Network invites you to go aboard with the Interrail Pass for Erasmus+ for 4 or 6 travel days to use over six months. You can purchase the pass using the green travel funding support provided by the Erasmus+ Program grant scheme. If you have any questions about the pricing, the eligibility of your country, or any other information we invite you to visit the dedicated website or ask our team.
