Welcome to ELSA Helsinki
The European Law Students' Association
The European Law Students' Association is the world's largest international and independent law students' association with nearly 30 000 members in 40 countries. ELSA was founded in Vienna in 1981 by law students from Austria, Poland, Hungary and West Germany. The initial idea was to promote international contacts of law students and to foster mutual understanding in a divided Europe. ELSA Helsinki, founded in 1992, is one of the three Local Groups of ELSA Finland. The role of the Local Groups in ELSA is of utmost importance since the events are mostly organised on the local level. ELSA International is the highest executive organ in ELSA. The National Board in each country acts as a links between ELSA International and the local level and supports the Local Groups in their activities. The same ideology that existed in 1981 is still the basis of ELSA: to offer law students an international platform where professional and social skills can be developed in an atmosphere of critical dialogue and cultural diversity. ELSA offers its members an opportunity to develop themselves both professionally and personally and thus to prepare themselves for a career in an international setting.
