ENGAGE & LEAD 2015/2016

AIESEC in Sweden 2015/2016

During the term in AIESEC in Sweden there are four conferences with different focuses. This is a meeting space for the whole network where delegates can change ideas and share their experiences. It is an educational space where they learn about AIESEC and different functional areas as well as develop personally. But behind all of this there is an OC team that plan, prepare and make it all happen. It is a hands on experience which requires a sharp mind and solution oriented approach and it is also among one of the most valuable experiences in AIESEC.

AIESEC in Sweden is proud to open the bid for the two first conferences in the conference cycle, ENGAGE and LEAD. In this Conference Bid Booklet you will find information about the conferences, the timelines and what is required in the bid. We are looking forward to see which LCs dares to be the one and face this challenge.

With love, MC BeIT
