Ambassadorship

programme 14|15

What is it?

The Ambassadorship programme is a combined

CEED (Cultural Envoy for Exchange

Development) + GCDP opportunity for members

of AIESEC NZ.

As an Ambassador you will experience a GCDP (6-12 weeks) abroad, while you are also

engaged in a local AIESEC entity. This means

you get to do improve AIESEC in another entity

and bring back new things you learned.

“I strongly recommend an AIESEC New Zealand Ambassadorship because the people and experiences you encounter will be the absolute highlight of your

AIESEC experience and probably your time at University”.

ALEX BEATSON, AIESEC Canterbury LCP 12|13

What do previous

Ambassadors have to

say?

“What a crazy and exciting adventure I went on to Brazil. It was such a unique and incredible experience that has taught me so much more

about myself, my culture, Brazil’s culture and AIESEC.” Jess Bing, AIESEC Victoria LCVP 12|13

I believe I just wrote one of the most beautiful chapters of my life. I spent 3 months of my summer holidays on a AIESEC Ambassadorship in Jaipur India.

The most important lesson I have learnt and that has changed my life would be "Happiness isn't about getting what you want all the time. It's about loving what you have and being grateful for it!“ Shivagni Kumar, AIESEC Waikato

Features

Programme fee is $500

This fee includes:

- GCDP exchange fee

- Organised CEED

- Ambassadorship Prep weekend

(October)

Does not include travel cost of any kind.

All Ambassadors will be managed by the

NST Ambassadorship

I would recommend this program

because it will teach you so much about AIESEC, you will get so much more from working with AIESECers as well than you would doing just an exchange. You make friends who become like family among the AIESECers.

Sinead Logan, AIESEC Otago LCP 13|14

“This is us in Sapa. We had spent over a month together

eating, sleeping and making general mischief whilst

working on our project, This photo was towards the end

of our journey when we decided to do one last trip

together by ourselves. Looking back, this captures what

AIESEC is all about; people from different countries

coming together to make a positive impact in places

most of us have never been to, have never seen, have

never experienced with people we've never met

before. We may never meet again, but we will always

remember the times. This is peace and fulfillment

towards humankind's potential.”

Dinesh Kumar, AIESEC Auckland TL 13|14
