Global Volunteer Program:
What is Global Volunteer?

  • Global Volunteer is AIESEC’s 6 to 8 weeks cross-cultural volunteer experience for young people who seek to develop themselves and the world. Discover the art of experiential wanderlust by working with NGOs or on projects directly contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals.
  • Global Volunteer is an intensive international volunteer abroad experience that enables you to work on projects that impact social issues. Through this, we empower communities by developing the people and enabling them to develop a more sustainable and healthy future.
  • Overall, through this program, AIESEC is providing young students with an opportunity to develop entrepreneurial and leadership skills through international internships mainly on social issues which will help them enrich their education, challenge their worldview and help them gain a unique combination of multicultural, social and entrepreneurial experience during the formative years of their lives.

Why do we do it?

Our projects exist because we shape everything we do around what the world needs. We are committed to creating a youth movement to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals by the year 2030. Click here to learn more about the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
