European Dental Students' Association
The European Dental Students’ Association (EDSA) was founded in 1988 and currently represents more than 65,000 dental students from 182 dental schools in 30 different countries. The EDSA is a non-profitable and a non-political organization that is open to all local or national dental students’ associations in the European region.
The EDSA aims to raise a constant “students’ point of view” in a national and international forum in addition to expressing European dental students’ opinions on educational, professional and social aspects of dentistry.
