Erasmus Student Network (ESN) joins the European Movement International

ESN is proud to be accepted as a full member of the European Movement International. The European Movement is an international organisation open to all political, economic, social and cultural trends in civil society. Its objective is to "contribute to the establishment of a united, federal Europe founded on the principles of peace, democracy, liberty, solidarity, and respect for basic human rights. It seeks to provide a structure to encourage and facilitate the active participation of citizens and civil society organisations in the development of a united Europe". Its 42 National Councils and 32 associated Member Organisations work towards bringing together representatives from European associations, political parties, enterprises, trade unions and individual lobbyists. The European Movement has a very rich history involving very high level political figures crucial for European integration such as Walter Hallstein and Robert Schuman.

ESN is very much looking forward to working with the European Movement on the international level and also encourages national levels to seek ties with the respective European Movements on the national level. Our main aim is to be a strong voice for international student mobility in the European Movement and at the same time gain access to important decision makers that will shape the future of mobility and international education in Europe.
