AIESEC Tuzla

AIESEC Tuzla is a Local Committee of AIESEC, a global platform for young people to explore and develop their leadership potential. We are a non-political, independent, not-for-profit organisation. AIESEC was founded in 1948. in 7 countries in Europe by Jean Choplin (France), Bengt Sjøstrand (Sweden), and Dr. Albert Kaltenthaler (Germany). Over 65 years later we are present on every continent, in 126 countries and territories. Since AIESEC was founded, we have engaged and developed over 1.000.000 young people who have been through an AIESEC experience. The impact of our organisation can be seen through our alumni who represent business, NGO and world leaders, including one Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Martti Atisaari of Finland. We are passionate about world issues, leadership development, cultural understanding and experiential learning. We have operated in this way since our inception, making us uniquely “by students, for students”. The global leadership teams are elected by the membership annually. We are in consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), affiliated with the UN DPI, member of ICMYO, and is recognised by UNESCO. Our motto: "Empowering Young People for Peace and Fulfillment of Humankind's Potential."
