SUMMARY:The ESU International Council Meeting 2026
DESCRIPTION:We’re thrilled to invite you and your guests to this year’s International Council Meeting\, to be held in London from 13-17 July 2026. \nPlanned to coincide with our International Public Speaking Competition (IPSC)\, the week will give attendees the chance not only to mix with other ESU members from around the globe\, but to experience our work first-hand\, too. \nThe programme begins with a welcome dinner at Dartmouth House on the Monday evening and includes a range of quintessentially British activities such as tours of London’s cultural landmarks and a theatre performance. The highlight will of course be the grand final of the IPSC where the best young speakers in the world take to the stage at the Royal Institution. Always an inspiring\, high-octane event\, it attracts a truly multi cultural audience and is a great example of our mission to build a more collaborative world. \nTickets cost £550 for the full week (plus transport and accommodation). \nTo register your interest\, click here. \nTo find out more contact events@esu.org. \n
