ELSA (The European Law Students' Association) is an international, independent, non-political, non-profit-making organisation run by and for students. It is comprised of students and recent graduates who are interested in law and have demonstrated commitment to international issues.

Law students from Austria, Hungary, Poland and West Germany founded ELSA in 1981. ELSA is today the world's largest independent law students association and it is represented in more than 200 law faculties in 35 countries across Europe. It comprises a membership of almost 30 000 students and recent graduates who are interested in law and have demonstrated commitment to international issues.

ELSA operates primarily through its local groups. In every country a National Board oversees the activities of local groups, whereas the International Board in Brussels coordinates ELSA activities internationally.

ELSA Estonia is registered as a non-profit organisation. Our members are mainly from Institute of Law of the University of Tartu (in Tallinn) Faculty of Law of the University of Tartu (in Tartu) but we have also members from University of Nord and International University Audentes.
