How do I join a local group?

ELSA Greece organises two national competitions: the National Moot Court Competition (EDED) and the National Negotiation Competition (ENC). In addition, Greek students take part in international moot courts such as the Jessup, Vis, the ELSA Moot Court Competition and more.
Is there a membership fee?
Yes, each local group sets its own annual fee, which is usually very affordable for students. Your membership gives you access to all activities, events and traineeship opportunities. Contact your local group for the current fee.
