AIESEC in Moldova
The history and projects of AIESEC in Moldova (which include AIESEC in Bălți and Chișinău)
I hope you liked History at school and you enjoy reading about the past events but in case you didn't I promise this article won't be boring for you (either way we should have "the talk"), stay with us.
Hopefully this information is not new for you and you are aware of what we do as AIESEC and you heard about our projects and events (but if you haven't - now it's your time to learn about them), we can proceed to what we have been doing for the past 5 year through our local volunteering projects, international volunteering and internship exchanges and events.
AIESEC
You know already from all the possible sources that AIESEC was founded in 1948 by people from six different countries, well I suppose you asked yourself at least once when AIESEC in Moldova was founded. I'll tell you right now! For the first time, AIESEC in Moldova opened its doors to Young People in 1999, unfortunately, to be closed a few years after. Then the young generation of 2004 wanted to re-open such an amazing organization as AIESEC. AIESEC in Moldova started to develop and to offer challenging spaces and activities for youth to grow since 2004.
In 2008 there were built two more homes for AIESEC and exactly AIESEC in Chișinău together with AIESEC in Bălți. These were the new second homes for more curious and willing to learn youngsters.
Later after in 2011 the third AIESEC office was officially registered as AIESEC in Cahul, it was a great place were new adventures and projects were implemented.
EwA Projects (Engagement with AIESEC)
Engagement with AIESEC is when you have participated as a delegate/interviewer at our Events and activities as Youth Speak Forum or Youth Speak Survey, you were a participant at our Exchange projects or you helped us in the organization of the event/project as a Local Volunteer.
Youth Speak
YouthSpeak is a global initiative that aims to make AIESEC a credible youth voice and to get closer to achieving the SDGs. It comprises of 2 projects:
YouthSpeak Survey - here we collect the opinions of the young generationYouthSpeak Forum - here we create a platform that brings together both young and senior leaders to discuss upon the findings of the Survey.

YSF was organized three times by AIESEC in Moldova, first YSF was in 2016, then in May of 2017 and May of 2018
Our core mission is to contribute to a world without conflicts, discrimination or international barriers. We do that through our international volunteering or internship exchanges.
Incoming Exchange - we partner with local NGOs (for volunteering opportunities) or companies (for internship opportunities) and bring internationals to Moldova
Outgoing Exchange - we send local youth all over the world to volunteer or get job experience.
For the past 5 years we managed to facilitate more than 280 exchange experiences and organize more than 15 projects like:
