IESEC is the world’s largest youth-led organisation, currently present in more than 120 countries all across the globe. AIESEC continuously strive to achieve peace and fulfilment of humankind’s potential by placing confidence in youth as the key to unlock a better future. In addition, AIESEC believes that leadership is the fundamental solution and it can be developed in anyone. The organisation provides youths with the opportunity to embark on a cross-cultural exchange in the form of global volunteer or global talent. However, due to the coronavirus pandemic, AIESEC instead has shifted its focus to enhancing membership experiences through leadership opportunities to empower youth. Here is what one of our current members as well as a previous Exchange Participant have to say about their AIESEC experiences.
