AIESEC New Zealand is excited to announce that Lonely Planet is now one of our exchange programme partners (OE+/Impact Abroad).

Lonely Planet will be working with AIESEC to ensure that the students going abroad with us this summer are equipped with the best travel information currently available.

Last year over 150 students created a social impact with AIESEC’s international volunteer programme. The new partnership will see exchange participants able to travel even further off the beaten path and still get there safely. For almost 40 years, Lonely Planet has been helping get to the heart of new destinations. The partnership sees the world’s largest travel publisher working with the New Zealand branch of the world’s largest student organisation.

Both organisations are looking forward to seeing where the partnership takes students.
