The Student Commission is EUSA’s channel to approach students in member organisation’s countries, with the goal is to have more competitors, more volunteers and more active students in university sport all over Europe. 

 

Student Commission members are involved in activities such as: EUSA Volunteering Programme, Photo Competition, Social Responsibility Programme; and Student Commission Network. 

Its principles include equity between genders and generations, open decision-making processes, fair play, zero tolerance in the use of doping and genuine spirit of sportsmanship.
