Present in over
1100 universities in
over 105 countries and territories , AIESEC, the world's largest student
organization, is the international platform for young people to discover and develop their
potential so as to have a positive impact in society.
Towards this aim, we run more than
350 conferences , provide
4,450 work abroad opportunities , and offer over
7,500 leadership positions to our members each year. Together with a focus on
building personal networks and exploring the direction and ambition of their future, AIESEC has an
innovative approach to engaging and developing young people.
Our
partner organizations , literally
thousands from all sectors , look at AIESEC as a way to
support the development of young people and to have
access to high-potential young talent from around the world
.
Our alumni are leaders within these organizations and their
communities - using the experience, skills, and increased vision that AIESEC gave them to be
agents of positive change .
The
United Nations has long recognised that the imagination, ideals and energies of young men and women
are vital for the continuing development of the societies in which they live.
AIESEC has contribuited to this development
by serving as an agent of positive change through education and cultural exchange to develop a
broader understanding of cultural,
socio-economic
and business management issues.
