German Student Association
Deutsche Studenten im Ausland, or the German Student Association (DSiA), was founded in 2013 as an initiative to support and represent the growing community of students with a German background living in Rīga.

We aim to mediate and give guidance in university matters, as well as provide students help with adapting to life abroad. We further strive towards hosting inclusive events for all students in order to facilitate intercultural exchange and provide opportunities to relax after a stressful study session.
As all our members are students in Rīga themselves, we aspire to bring variety into your everyday student life along the lines of the motto – For students, by students.
Events
Our events vary each month and are the result of personal motivation and teamwork. We thoroughly enjoy new ideas and encourage people to get actively involved in designing their student life. We therefore highly encourage fellow students to come along to our open meetings and participate.
An excerpt of our events can be seen below:
