ELSA Finland

ELSA Finland is the Finnish National Group of ELSA, the European Law Students’ Association.

As a national group of ELSA, ELSA Finland takes care of Finland’s international relations in the Europe-wide ELSA network. In Finland, ELSA Finland supports the activities of its own local groups, improves communication between them, and informs them about international ELSA events. In this way, ELSA Finland acts as a channel of communication between local groups and the international ELSA network. ELSA Finland organises national moot courts and academic writing competitions, and coordinates the organisation of joint events between local groups. The board of ELSA Finland is elected annually at the spring National Council Meeting (NCM), where Finnish local groups exercise their voting rights. ELSA Finland has the right to vote as part of the International Council of ELSA.

In cases of harassment and inappropriate behavior, the following guidelines apply. These guidelines are enforced at all events and activities organized or coordinated by the ELSA network in Finland (ELSA Finland and local groups). The guidelines are binding for all individuals participating in, organizing, or facilitating the events or activities. They are also binding for all board members and officers of the ELSA network in Finland.

You can find the guidelines for harassment and inappropriate behavior for the ELSA network in Finland here.
