3rd Congress of the European Dental Students Association

Barcelona, 8-12 october 1998


Do you know Barcelona ?

Barcelona is the main city in Catalonia. With two thousand years of history, and almost two milions inhabitants, Barcelona is located in the north-east of the Iberian Peninsula, by the Mediterranean sea and it has warm weather all the year round. No other city has such a wide selection of Modernist architecture as Barcelona. Worthy of particular attention are the works by Antonio Gaudí, "Sagrada Familia", "Park Güell" and "La Pedrera"...

Barcelona is the only European capital with more than four kilometres of beaches. On these beaches, we find two of the most important meeting points with a wide selection of bars, restaurants, shops and leisure areas.Barcelona design is applied in a surprising way in bars and nighy clubs, lively places where people go until the early hours of the morning. If you think that you can't miss all this mood, just fullfill the application form you find in this leaflet and join the fun.

Edsa: Who we are?

Edsa is the European Dental Students Association. All countries within Europe having a Dental Faculty can send their delegates to the EDSA Meetings which are held twice per year. That link brings students the opportunity of making exchanges in the educational and the social fields, promoting our opinions among other students organisations and educational Dental Institutions.

The EDSA is offering to all Dental students the following activities. First of all, you are invited to remain aware of EDSA activities by the 'EDS Magazine 'and the web page in internet 'EDS Magline ' http://www.sou.uni-lj.si/eds/.
