A word from SU National Coordinator...

On behalf of the MC Croatia 12/13, it’s an honour to say that we started to implement the SU idea into action!!!

On WLDC you heard about SU for the first time, and now, two months after the conference, we have four SUs; Vukovar, Sla-vonski Brod, Zadar and Pula, and four really amazing people who are leading it and have a major role in the entire project – three of them we are presenting now, and one later since it has been chosen as SUP just a few days ago!

Right now, Specialized Unit project is one of the main priorities in AIESEC Croatia. Main reason is that we want to achieve our National Goal of 200 ex-changes, but also to push ourselves to achieve more impact in a whole new way. We will make it only by working efficiently and effectively!

Our dear SUPs, thank you for applying and wish you lots of success in your fur-

ther work!

SUP: Danijela Bahić

Volunteering represents a great challenge for me – I want to change the world, explore, learn something new every day and meet new people. I expect my life to be filled with challenges, ups and downs, with work and investments in my knowledge! AIESEC makes all of that possible for me and that's why I'm a part of this project!

SU Slvonski Brod so far:

We introduced AIESEC to students, introduced “Hoću na praksu” page to them and encouraged them to think about volunteering! I think we are slowly, but surely succeeding with our final goal, everything is very organized so far and if we connect all the dots of this project until the end, everything will be very successful!

Note: In the next newsletter find out more about SU Pula, founded in February by LC Rijeka!

SUP: Tomislav Barović

Development of possibilities on my university, meeting new cul-tures, need for new challenges, presenting Danube region and a proof that Vukovar is not neglected – those are motives why I applied for this position and AIESEC!

After my elections as SUP and meeting a lot of young, ambitious and smart people from LC Osijek, I started to form a team that will give their best in implementing „Hoću na praksu“ in Vukovar. My new team mates are my colleague Marina Barić as SUVP OGX - because of her amazing communication skills and English language, and Dino Božino-vić as SU VP PR&Mktg, with excellent communication and presentation skills. What we achieved so far is next:

“Hoću na praksu” FB page promotion among students and general promotion through portals “Panorama Vukovar”, contacting new student service to start with the promo-tion on university pages and through other media. We promoted HNP on student pages and groups also.

Start of agreement with cafe bar “The Dublin Pub” to start promoting on their FB pages and putting posters and promo materials in their bar.


SUP: Eva Miletić

Although I have met AIESEC recently, I didn't take me a lot to real-ize that I want to be a party of this organization. Not only it allows young people to use their free time in a high-quality way, but it also gives and opportunity to develop their skills that will be useful in their future life. AIESEC is a great opportunity for me to raise my self-esteem and become more innovative and to achieve positive impact on society with my work! Thank you, LC Split, for giving me that opportunity!

We formed a team - Ivana Jurić- VP OGX, Matea Gugić VP PR&MKTG, Nena Mikas VP TM, team mmbs Marina Matiša and Maria Marinović

One EP already raised!!! First meeting and educations done

Good luck!!! :)

“Hoću na praksu” campaign started in January as a common project of PR&Mktg and OGX national teams! The main idea of the campaign was to raise awareness of our GCDP internship and try to make a reach and transfer the right message about importance and benefits of volunteering to our target audience from all over the Croatia!

In the first month, HNP had amazing results and our expectations were more than achieved, although we can always do more and better!

Lets see the wrap-up of the first month:

Around 1400 likes on FB page—200 more than planned

Average reach is 60%

More than 150 applications for our volunteering internship

Each LC did a great job with their week on HNP—all national agreements and ideas

implemented

go-away.org used as a national tool—although many improvements need to be

done

Media releases about HNP in almost all LCs and on national level—around 30 media

releases

A couple of words of praise: a big round of applause for PRs: Klara, Josipa, Petra H., Biber and Josip, and OGXers Amidža, Leon, Dino, Pejo and Petra, and to my right hand Simon, our NST IM!

You did and amazing job, proud of you! Lets keep up the good work! <3

Zdravo ljudi!

January came and passed with lots of food and drinks I guess for most of us!

I don’t know if you have counted but we have ONLY 4 months of our LC term left!

This is why in this message I just want to say a huge BRAVO to all of us for all the things we have achieved so far in the term!

We managed ljudi to create NEW National ICX project and raise it within a period of less

than 2 months!!!

And now we are matching those TNs!!

We created new promotion for oGCDP- Hocu na praksu and now more people hoce ici

na praksu!

Not even to mention New Recruitment Structure!

All these and much more happened because ALL of US worked hard after WLDC and we proved that it wasn’t a conference that we just had fun but we actually used it in the best

way possible and RESULTS are visible!! :DD

We still miss a lot to reach 200 but with this rhythm, I believe WE CAN DO IT! :)

Let the rest period to be 4 months full of

JOY, HARD WORK and MAKING SOCIETY A BIT BETTER

through our internships and our members!

Your proud MCP

Katerina
