European resources

The EU Calendar is a new tool from the European Commission allowing you to find out what is on the agenda of the European institutions in the near future. 

An electronic petitions service to increase citizen participation in European democracy is being launched by the European Commission and Parliament. The 2 year EuroPetition project, at http://www.europetition.eu, will pilot petitions at local community and European levels, and has information about how to find out about EU legislation.

On Monday 18th May, some ELSA members took a break from revision and exam stress to participate in the London Legal Support Trust sponsored walk. Over £380,000 was raised by all the teams which took part. ELSA's contribution was helped tremendously by the anonymous donation of £295. Thank you very much.

NEWS:

The English Law Students’ Association is pleased to announce that we have reached a co-operation agreement with the following international associations:

The presidents participated in the first international secretariat meeting which took place on Sunday 1st February 2009 via skype conference call.

From now on ELSA London members will be able to attend events organised by ALSA, ALSA and NZLSA. Our members will be informed of such events via the Members’ Mailing List. The benefit of this co-operation agreement is that it affords our members the opportunity to travel to other parts of the world knowing that when you get there, there will be network of law students for you to fall back on.

Our associations have agreed to co-operate in other ways, for example by allowing members to submit work for publication in each others journals or to participate in other Academic Activities (e.g. competitions, legal research projects etc). Although it is still very early days, it is hoped that in future our associations will also work on joint international projects or even study visits / exchanges. It is our aim to extend this co-operation / partnership to include other law student associations, for example ILSA. Watch this space!
