Additionally AIESEC fosters leadership for a positive impact on society by providing 12,000 leadership positions at local, national and international levels each year.”

Message from the president AIESEC United Arab Emirates in 2010/2011 Welcome and thank you for reading the AIESEC UAE Q3 External Newsletter. In this newsletter you will find more information about the activities of AIESEC UAE and the engagement opportunities that we provide.

The stand AIESEC UAE National team for 2010/11 is Engage, Empower, Achieve. It reflects our ambition of the term which is to engage all of our stakeholders in a stronger and more positive way, Empower our membership and youth to take up ownership and to lead the organization which in turn will lead us to achieving our goals.

The National team has set ambitious goals for the term and after three months I can confidently state that we are on the right track of achieving them. Currently we have around 70 members in the organization and we realized 6 exchange experiences (from the 1st of July 2010). Our membership recruitment is underway as we speak in various universities in the UAE. We have signed one new partnership with Nielsen for our International Internship program whereby Nielsen is taking AIESEC interns. In addition to this our current partners ACER, Reckitt Benckiser and Kraft have decided to take in more interns through AIESEC which is for us a testament of the quality of the services that AIESEC UAE provides. We also have signed a partnership with Education First to be our recruitment partner for the year which is the first of its kind in AIESEC UAE and in the gulf region as well.
