AEGEE
AEGEE, (French: Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de l’Europe, English translation: European Student Forum Association) is an interdisciplinary student association in Europe.
Its birth was linked in 1985 to the first EGEE event: an assembly of students coming from several European countries, organised by its founder, Frank Biancheri, in Paris.
In 1987 obtained an important result, by successfully lobbying for the Erasmus project, a students' exchange program financed by the European Commission.
In 1988 the association changed the name from EGEE to AEGEE.
Today the association is represented in 260 academic cities and 42 countries across Europe.
