"On Thursday the 18th of February 2021 we hosted a virtual Questions and Answers session on Zoom.We held the event to allow students of any education background to answer any questions they may have had, from accessing reading materials to essay advice. We felt it was crucial to check in with students at the start of the second semester to re-engage members. We also felt it was necessary as the second semester has a tendency to fly by and time management for assessments can feel more tasking.At ELSA Maynooth we are dedicated to being there for any student who may need us and this was an accessible way to do so in the current climate."

We once again gained international recognition and had entrants from India, Russia, Ireland and Estonia.We felt it was vitally important in the interests of our participants to make the entry free this year. Therefore, all participants received a three-day event furthering their negotiation skills, networking with other students and our esteemed judges for free!Preliminary round 1 took place on Friday the 5th of March 2021.Preliminary round 2 and semi-finals were held Saturday the 6th of March 2021.The final was held on Sunday the 7th of March 2021.
