STUDY STAYS AND PRACTICAL PLACEMENTS
ACADEMIC YEAR 2024/2025:
Please note: The Green Erasmus scholarship for long-term mobility of 2-12 months is no longer valid for the academic year 2024/2025.
ACADEMIC YEAR 2023/2024:
The aim of Green Erasmus is to raise mobility participants' awareness of environmental issues and to implement projects in an environmentally sustainable way.
Eligible means of transport to / from the receiving foreign institution are train, bus, boat or shared car.
The main part of both trips must be made by one of the above means and the participants must keep evidence of such a trip (a ticket).
The one-off contribution is EUR 50.
In the case of the "shared car" option, it must be a carpool. In this sense, a case where someone will take you to the place of mobility and return without you is not considered a carpool.
It is necessary to provide a solemn declaration with the signatures of all persons who shared the transport and proof that the journey actually took place (petrol receipt, tolls, etc.).
If you wish to claim this allowance, please fill in the attached "amendment" (without the amount) and after returning from Erasmus, please bring it together with the original Confirmation of Erasmus Period and the necessary documents to the European Office.
Office hours of the European Office (Rectorate of Charles University, 1st floor, door 112 - Pavel Knap, Petra Šmídová): https://cuni.cz/UK-4172.html
The form is filled in when signing the participation contract and the contribution is paid simultaneously with the scholarship before the mobility. The contribution cannot be processed during and after returning from mobility.
After returning from mobility, send copies of tickets to Erasmus.outgoing@ruk.cuni.cz
SHORT TERM PHD. MOBILITIES
As of the academic year 2024/2025, a travel grant is newly introduced:
"Distance" is defined as the direct distance between the main headquarters of the sending and receiving institutions.
Distance Calculator to determine the distance
This scholarship can be further increased by a social grant of 100 Euros for stays of 1-14 days or 150 Euros for stays of 15-30 days.
Proof of travel costs:
Acceptable means of transport to/from the host foreign institution are: train, bus, bicycle or car sharing.
Both journeys - i.e. the first mobility journey and the last journey back to the Czech Republic - must be made by one of the above mentioned means and participants must keep evidence of such journeys (tickets) to be submitted to the European Office (EO) at the Rector's Office of the Charles University for checking upon return.
In the case of the 'car-sharing' option, it must be a shared journey. In this sense, carpooling does not include the case where someone drives you to the mobility location and returns without you (family, friends). You must provide an original affidavit with the signatures of all the persons (address + date of birth) who shared the transport and proof that the journey actually took place (petrol receipt, toll receipts, etc. for both journeys). In the case of travel by bicycle, the original affidavit of the journey made is required.
The allowance cannot be processed during and after the return from mobility.
After returning from mobility, send copies of tickets and other documents to erasmus.outgoing@ruk.cuni.cz.
In case of non-compliance, the allowance will be refunded.
*Please note: Confirmation of Erasmus period cannot be provided, e.g. for the period 1.3.2024 - 30.3.2024, together with a return ticket dated 24.3.2024 showing that the physical mobility ended earlier.
*Electronically signed original:
Generally, for an electronic document to be an original it must contain a qualified electronic signature. See Act No. 297/2016 Coll. on trust services for electronic transactions. The document is usually in pdf form, which the electronic signature locks for further editing.
