We are present in 397 Higher Education Institutions from 36 countries. The network is constantly developing and expanding.

ESN is working in Higher Education (HE)

• offering services to 150.000 students

ESN operates on three different levels, local, national and international.

ESN works for the creation of a more mobile and flexible education environment by supporting and developing the studen exchange from different levels, and providing an intercultural experience also to those students who cannot access a period abroad ("Internationalism at home").
