The Erasmus Student Network (ESN) is a pan-European organization which was founded in Copehagen in 1990 with the support and encourangement of the European Commission. Today, the more than 500 local sections of the network operate in 42 countries including Azerbaijan. In 2016, the country became the 38th member of the network. Since that ESN Azerbaijan has been committed to mission and vision of this big Network. We provide practical assistance to incoming students by means of a mentoring system, and help in finding accomodation and providing information and brochures to local sections. We also provide information and guidace to fellow students wishing to participate in different exchange programmes. This peer group assistance provided by ESN has not only practical value but reinforces the community of understanding which the Erasmus programme seeks to foster. Additionally, we implement capacity building activities aimed at improving non-formal and higher education in Azerbaijan.
