Elsa Szeged

The European Law Students’ Association (ELSA) is an international, independent, non-political, non-profit making organization run by and for students and recent graduates, who are interested in achieving academic and personal excellence in addition to their legal or law-related studies at university. ELSA aims at providing its members a platform to develop their existing skills and acquire new ones, to interact with fellow students and experienced practitioners from different states and legal systems around Europe, and to be equipped for a professional life in an international environment. ELSA works on three different levels; 1) international; 2) national and 3) local. ELSA Szeged is a local member of the ELSA family. Our aim is to contribute to legal education, to foster a mutual understanding and to promote social responsibility of law students and young lawyers. We provide educational and professional programs to law students in Szeged such as round table discussions, seminars and competitions. Furthermore we encourage our members to give back to society, therefore we organize at least one charity event per semester. ELSA's vision is "a just world in which there is respect for human dignity and cultural diversity".
