ISHA was founded in Budapest in May 1990 thanks to the initiative of Hungarian history students who, after the fall of the Iron Curtain, wanted to forge links with their colleagues in Western Europe. At present, ISHA's members include more than 25 sections in fifteen European countries, and a number of observers and associate members, while ISHA is itself an associate member of the European Students' Union (ESU).[4] Moreover, ISHA closely cooperates with a number of other academic networks, among them the Network of Concerned Historians,[5] the European History Network and EUROCLIO, the European Association of History Educators,[6][7] and The International Committee of Historical Sciences (ICHS), and the Right to Research Coalition (R2RC).[8]
