The ELI is proud to count the European Law Students Association (ELSA) Austria as one of its Institutional Observers and on 6 December 2018, the ELI Secretary General attended the LXII ELSA Austria National Council Meeting in Graz (Austria). Secretary General Vanessa Wilcox was given a platform to inform this present about the ELI – its history, output and ambitions – as well as the opportunities available to young lawyers under the ELI schemes, not least its recently launched Young Lawyers Award. Wilcox would like to express her sincere gratitude to ELSA Austria President Arsen Hovakimyan for his steadfast commitment to cooperating with the ELI. She also had the opportunity to meet ELSA International President Filipe Machado who confirmed the organisation’s wish to cooperate with the ELI.
