It is a joint initiative of six partners that represent four European countries: Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey and Slovenia. These partner organizations have diversity of profiles, specialization and expertise but are united by their interests into international mobilities and making them more inclusive.
GAME IT is co-funded by the European Union ERASMUS+ program, within KA2 – Cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices.
