WELS Belgrade on Diplomacy & International Law
ELSA Belgrade is proud to announce the fifth edition of the Winter ELSA Law School, taking place from March 14 - 21, 2027, this time dedicated to the topic of Diplomacy & International Law. Together with the Faculty of Law and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, our Academic Programme takes you into the world of modern diplomacy, offering a unique insight into how international law shapes relations between countries.
At the same time, Belgrade welcomes you with its streets full of history, its culture alive and vibrant, and the warmth of Serbian hospitality that turns every moment into a feeling of home. You will taste traditions, walk through heritage, and discover a city that greets you with a smile.
Once the sun goes down, the city reveals its vibrant nights - the lights, the music, the river, and a rhythm that never stops. This is where friendships are made, stories begin and the real adventure starts.
Belgrade never sleeps, and it is calling your name… are you ready to answer?
