European Dental Students Association (EDSA) was founded in 1988 in Paris and has a reliable network of more than 65,000 dental students in 182 dental schools in 26 countries. The registered offices of the Association are established in Dublin, Ireland.

EDSA delegates from each member country gather twice a year in a different European city and discuss current dental and educational affairs, make suggestions on future activities, promote solutions and make decisions.
The autumn EDSA Meeting is held immediately before each Association for Dental Education (ADEE) Annual Meeting which allows sufficient time for students to discuss the relevant ADEE scientific theme and then facilitate a number of students’ participation in the working and special interest groups at the ADEE Meeting.

The greatest event however in EDSA is the Congress, a meeting open to all Dental Students that takes place every two years.

In the spirit of expanding EDSA all over Europe, we constantly seek for new ideas, members and sponsors to help us helping other students; we feel that we are not the agents of change, but the innovators of change in Europe without borders.
