(History of AIESEC)
After World War 2 ended,
a small group of university
students in Europe found a
way to develop leaders and
alleviate tension between
countries. They made an
organization that allows students to gain leadership
skills and reach a new level
of cultural understanding
through an international
Internship Program.
