Erasmus Days 2025: Openness, Exchange, and European Values
From October 13 to 18, the Erasmus Days brought energy and color to the Paris, Toulouse, and Lyon campuses of ICD Business School, celebrating international openness, diversity, and the European values promoted by the Erasmus+ program. This key event allowed students, teachers, and staff to share their experiences and reaffirm their commitment to an education rooted in Europe and the world.
Celebrating the Erasmus+ Program and European Values
The Erasmus Days are an annual event held in over 60 countries, designed to showcase the Erasmus+ program, which supports the mobility of students, teachers, and higher education staff. This initiative strengthens international cooperation and the recognition of academic achievements, contributing to the creation of a European Higher Education Area based on quality, openness, and diversity.
The 2025 edition, themed “Living our values, shaping our future,” highlights the founding principles of the European Union; freedom, equality, democracy, and solidarity, encouraging every institution to embody these values through creative and inclusive initiatives.
A Meaningful and Inspiring Experience for Our Students
Across the Paris, Toulouse, and Lyon campuses, the Erasmus Days provided an opportunity for students to share their mobility experiences, engage with international peers, and explore the wide range of opportunities offered by the program.
These moments of exchange perfectly illustrate the spirit of the ICD Business School community: curiosity, openness, and experiential learning.
Testimonials from students who spent a semester abroad or welcomed peers from other European countries highlighted the benefits of these experiences: personal growth, cultural enrichment, adaptability to new academic environments, and a deeper understanding of the global professional landscape.
A Core Element of ICD Business School’s Educational Approach
Internationalization is not merely a development goal for ICD Business School: it is a fundamental pillar of its pedagogy. By supporting initiatives such as the Erasmus Days, the school reaffirms its commitment to an education that transcends borders and fosters intercultural exchange.
These events fully align with the mission of ICD Business School: to train future professionals in business and marketing who are open to the world, aware of global challenges, and driven by the values of respect, pluralism, and solidarity.
A unique celebration
The Erasmus Days remind us that Europe is not just a destination, but a community of shared values and opportunities. Through this celebration, ICD Business School reaffirms its dedication to providing every student with an international learning experience — one that combines human connection and academic growth to help build Europe’s collective future.
