The Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE) provides the general quality framework for European and international cooperation activities a higher education institution may carry out within Erasmus+. The award of an ECHE is a pre-requisite for all higher education institutions located in a Programme country and willing to participate in learning mobility of individuals and/or cooperation for innovation and good practices under Erasmus+. THE ECHE formulates the key Erasmus+ principles: equality, non-discrimination, transparency, fairness, inclusion, environmentally friendly practices and other Erasmus+ fundaments.
