ESE European Lectures

Application deadline: 25 June 2026, for lectures taking place in 2027. 

Online application form is available below.

Hosting an "ESE European Lecture" gives National Partner Societies an opportunity to invite a key ESE speaker to their national meeting. The aim is to strengthen connections, collaboration and knowledge-sharing between ESE and the National Partner Societies.

How it works:

  • A speaker will attend your national meeting, present a lecture and provide a brief overview of ESE's work
  • Speakers are chosen in collaboration with the National Societies, the ESE President and the ESE Executive Committee
  • National Societies are expected to fund the speaker's accommodation and subsistence costs
  • ESE may consider funding the speaker's travel costs related to the European Lecture, depending on budget restrictions
Application Information
  1. Please submit this online application form
  2. Your application will be reviewed by the ESE President and, and if necessary with the ESE Executive Committee
  3. The decision will be based upon financial availability and recent support to the applicant society, ensuring fairness for all National Partner Societies.
