Erasmus+ Future Skills Lab: From Denizli to Europe

“Erasmus+ Future Skills Lab: From Denizli to Europe” is an interactive ErasmusDays 2026 event organised by Mustafa Kaynak Anadolu Lisesi to help students discover how European cooperation can develop the skills and competences they need for the future.

Instead of a traditional presentation, the school will be transformed into an interactive learning environment where students will participate in a series of Erasmus+ themed stations.

At the “Erasmus Living Library”, students and teachers involved in European and international projects will share their experiences through short peer-to-peer conversations.

During the “Europe 2030 Challenge Lab”, student teams will work on real-life European challenges related to sustainability, climate action, digital citizenship, inclusion and cultural diversity. Each team will develop a practical solution and present it through a short pitch.

An interactive “From Denizli to Europe” map will allow students to explore European countries, international learning opportunities and the wider European dimension of education.

At the “My Message to Europe” video station, students will record short messages about the skills, values and ideas they believe young Europeans will need in the future. Selected messages will be brought together in a digital ErasmusDays video entitled “Voices from MKAL”.

Participants will also receive an “Erasmus Skills Passport” and collect stamps as they complete activities focusing on communication, teamwork, creativity, problem-solving, digital competence, environmental responsibility, intercultural awareness and active citizenship.

The event aims to make Erasmus+ visible not simply as a mobility programme, but as an opportunity for young people to learn, cooperate, create and develop the competences needed to become active, responsible and internationally minded citizens.
