Today’s European Union upholds diversity, inclusivity, and equality as core values, and nowhere is this more apparent than in the Erasmus+ programme. This episode focuses on the challenges that some people face in their daily lives, and how those challenges can deter you—unless you have the information and inspiration that our guest brings to us. Our guest, Eleni Theodorou, managing director of We Share Forward Foundation and a former Erasmus+ student from Greece with severe vision disabilities, will share her transformative journey. Studying in Lausanne and Geneva, Eleni gained international career opportunities and now works in The Hague in venture philanthropy and impact investing. She highlights Erasmus+ as a catalyst for an inclusive Europe, recommending it to all, especially those with disabilities. Eleni’s story is a testament to the life-changing potential of Erasmus+, providing the encouragement needed to overcome obstacles and seize new opportunities.
