Together Twentyear

On 16 October 1989, the first ESN section was established…

On 16 October 2009, ESN celebrated its 20th Birthday… 

The whole year 2009 was dedicated to Happy Birthday! ESN celebrations. It is definitely a milestone in ESN history – ESN has been changing the shape of Europe for 20 years – 20 years of new friendships, new experience, new opportunities...

Together, the whole network ESN celebrated what we have achieved in the past, what we are doing in the present and what we are aiming at in the future.

20 years of ESN existence are actually much more than 20 times 365 days… together we are more than twenty... Together Twentyear

The celebrations were going on from 16 October 2008 till 16 October 2009 and involved the whole network, Erasmus and international students and to a certain extent also general public.
