International networks

The League of European Research Universities (LERU) is a network of European universities with the common denominator of quality education and competitive international research.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) is a membership Union uniquely composed of both government and civil society organisations. It provides public, private and non-governmental organisations with the knowledge and tools that enable human progress, economic development and nature conservation to take place together.

The objectives of the Observatorio del Derecho a la Alimentación de España (ODA-E) are to promote multidisciplinary research initiatives - such as the elaboration of diagnoses on the situation of the right to food in Spain - that can influence public policies and guarantee the enforceability of the right to food and related issues.

The European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR) is an independent scholarly association, established in 1970. Its 350 institutional members across around 50 countries represent the leading universities, students and senior academics engaged in the research and teaching of political science worldwide.

The European Law Faculties Association (ELFA) was founded in 1995 in Leuven by more than 80 Faculties of Law located in different universities across Europe. The organisation today has more than 250 members from countries within Europe and beyond. ELFA acts as an international forum for the discussion of legal topics related to legal education, and negotiates and signs cooperation agreements with governmental agencies and educational entities in Europe and internationally.
