Welcome to ELFA
The European Law Faculties Association (ELFA) was founded in 1995 in Leuven by more than 80 Faculties of Law located in different universities across Europe. The organisation now has more than 200 members from countries within the E.U. and beyond.
Our Mission
The aim of ELFA's activities is to coordinate process of reform of legal education in Europe, introducing new topics, promoting cooperation between Universities in Europe and representing Law Faculties vis-à-vis European Institutions, National Education Institutions and Professional Laywers and Prosecuters Associations.
Through this website and the European Journal of Legal Education (EJLE), it provides information about the current state of legal education in Europe and an international forum for the discussion of the impact of the Sorbonne-Bologna Declaration on the study of law.
ELFA places particular emphasis on accreditation and quality assessment as a condition for the Europeanisation of the study of law. ELFA is also active in developing new models for the use of ICT in legal education and provides information and support for its member faculties in this rapidly evolving area.
ELFA co-operates with other professional associations in the field of legal studies in order to further promote activities relating to legal education.
