International Focus Programme (IFP)
IPSF Highlight
The International Pharmaceutical Students Federation (IPSF) was founded in 1949 by eight
pharmacy student associations in London. The Federation now represents approximately 350,000
pharmacy students and recent graduates in 70 countries worldwide. IPSF initiatives focus mainly on
the areas of public health, pharmacy education and professional development. The activities include
public health campaigns, research on issues in pharmacy education and workforce development, a
student exchange programme and the organisation of international and regional congresses and
symposia.
EPSA Highlight
ELSA s expanding network is also affiliated with EPSA, the European Pharmaceutical Students'
Association. With presence in 33 European countries EPSA is in many countries where ELSA is also
active. Medical application patents are one of the hottest topics today. If you are looking for a
specialised speaker, don t look further! Contact us and we will help you with your joint event.
ALSA Highlight
And yes, there are law students outside Europe. The Asian Law Students Association, which spans
over 10 countries and regions, is the biggest such association in Asia and offers a lot of possibilities.
Want to promote your event? Think out of the box, include Asia! Inform us about your plans and we
will be happy to bring you in contact with ALSA.

International Focus Programme (IFP)
Ready to make a success out of your IFP Event?
Now that you have made your mind on an IFP event, it is time to think about how to make it a big
success. Good organisation is one pole and good promotion is the other. Giving the network enough
time to put your event in its agenda is important. People don t usually travel 1500 miles on a
spontaneous decision. Don t forget to register your event with the ELSA International website. Fill
in the requested Event Specification Form and send it to vpsc@elsa.org or vpmarketing@elsa.org to
ensure that your event is promoted on ELSA International s website. Communicate your events in
the officers mailing lists or start your own local list to help facilitate communication for your event.
Setting up a dedicated website would boost your publicity. Flyers, posters, invitations and ads to local
magazines and newspapers will also work. Check the archive for certificates, poster templates and
other materials! Remember also to use the IFP Logo in all your materials and publications!
Every event is different and has its very own special needs. Contact the Director for IFP for every
kind of question you have or way of support, which would be helpful for you (ifp@elsa.org)
Your contribution
The success of the IFP is in the hands of every local or national ELSA group. It is you who makes
IFP what it is, or what it is not. Please keep ELSA International updated about your events. That will
help the network get the broader picture and will help you promote your event. After each IFP event
make sure you submit a report. National Groups are responsible for the submission of the Activity
Report at the end of the IFP. At the end of the day, keep in mind that whatever you do takes the
welfare of the IFP Programme a step further.
