International Experience
What is AIESEC?
AIESEC is the world’s largest international youth-run, not-for-profit organization that provides high-calibre youth talent and volunteers. AIESEC NZ develops the next generation of Kiwi leaders through international cross-cultural experiences.
AIESEC was founded in 1948 in 7 countries in Europe to prevent similar conflicts as WWII. Now, more than 68 years later, we are present in over 126 countries and territories and still growing providing cultural exchange programmes for youth.
AIESEC for Youth
Empower yourself with global volunteer, internship, and work opportunities abroad. We enable you to feel a shared responsibility for the world and provide you with the tools to help change it.
AIESEC for Organisations
Whether your business is one hundred years old, or a few months; not-for-profit or corporate, learn how partnering with AIESEC can strengthen your talent pipeline, employer branding, and access to global youth insights.
The Leadership Qualities We Develop
We place our confidence in youth because they have the passion, dynamism and entrepreneurial spirit that are needed to shape the future. They have the responsibility to improve tomorrow by choosing who they will be today.
AIESEC provides an opportunity for young people to work or volunteer abroad in non-familiar environments. This allows them to step outside their comfort zone and expand their worldviews, while contributing to the community in which they are working. Living such experiences enables people to build a better understanding of how to communicate and capitalise on diversity in our increasingly connected world.
AIESEC’S leadership development model seeks to prepare youth to take a stand on what they care about and become capable to make a difference through their everyday actions. That is why our answer is to develop the characteristics according to the world’s biggest trends.
