ELSA Meetings and Seminars

The most powerful tools in ELSA's exchange work are the European seminars which bring together Board members of the national stuttering organizations and other interested delegates and professionals working in the field. Each seminar is devoted to a particular topic.

ELSA seminars are part funded by the Commission of the European Union.
