Membership
Membership
There are four categories of membership:
- Full membership
- Associate membership
- Institutional membership
- Student Membership
Full membership is open to health lawyers in Europe, that is, those who are involved with health law and health law-related issues within Council of Europe countries.
Associate membership is open to those individuals who do not meet the above criteria but who can contribute substantially to the objectives of the Association.
Institutional membership is open to European University health law centres and some law firms specialising in Health Law. Each institutional member will be represented by one employee, to be registered in the Members’ Database. Institutional members will not have voting rights or any right to hold EAHL office, but otherwise will enjoy all of the privileges of full membership (save that institutional subscriptions fees to EJHL will apply).
