As such, all people who are involved in the exchange process are important in achieving the intended result.

ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS
AIESEC provides exchange participants opportunities to develop professional skills in new cultural settings. Our volunteers gain hands-on experience working with NGOs and small businesses in communities to develop relevant and culturally suitable solutions to local problems. Projects surrounding this issue may be in the fields of marketing, microfinance, NGO management, social business, or organizational development.
Protecting the environment is a major part of the global development agenda and exchange participants can directly impact communities, struggling with moving towards, becoming a little bit greener. Promote and participate in sustainable development projects regarding energy conservation, pollution, climate change, flora and fauna conservation, recycling, and waste management.
Over 45 % of the world’s population is under 25 years old. AIESEC allows exchange participants to engage in the development of youth in communities where education and access to literacy is uncommon. While there, volunteers are immersed in the local culture, gaining and offering a global perspective to local communities. Projects in youth empowerment are literacy, social work, youth education, or cross-cultural awareness.

Because of this, there are almost no volunteer projects available in regions such as western Europe.
