In Need of Bravery Do you think you are brave enough to create something revolutionary? Do you think you are brave enough to rewrite history? Do you think you are brave enough to create a meeting point for the entire Middle East and Africa region to converge in one powerful space? I am not insinuating an absence of fear but a demonstration of courage - courage to dare in the face of pessimism and challenges. I am ready to dare because I comprehend the strategic and socioeconomic importance of MEA XLDS both to AIESEC and the region. For the first time, the stage of this conference will be set in Nigeria. What an opportunity to paint a tangible picture of what AIESEC is to our country - the Nigerian people, the government and the corporate sector. With this conference, we can kick-start a movement for Nigeria. Will it be challenging? Yes! But is there anything worthwhile in life that isn't challenging? Waste no time! Join the crew! Be part of history!
