How to be a delegate for ELSA?

 

Calls for delegations are announced via the International ELSA-info list. If you want to be subscribed to the list, please send an e-mail to enquiries(at)elsa.org.


Candidate for a delegation has to be a member of ELSA. In addition a delegate has to have adequate knowledge about the work of the respective institution, as well as sufficient knowledge and experience in the field of ELSA work.


What to do after being elected as a delegate?

 

Delegates have to be well prepared for the sessions; therefore the delegation is working together couple of months before the event. During this period the delegates do research concerning the main topic of the session and current activities of the organization/institution.

After the event each delegation prepares a detail report of the session. The report is published

by ELSA International.

ELSA International strongly encourages the delegates to write an article for ELSA Selected Papers on European Law (ELSA SPEL) based on their gained experience and newly found knowledge.
