Go Abroad

Explore Your World

AIESEC is an international leadership organization that arranges internships and social projects for young people to go abroad. In the United States we are present in 28 locations and have 600 volunteer student members who support us in our mission to create more intercultural understanding in the world. We work with nearly 20 partner countries on projects such as education, gender equality, the environment, culture and start-ups.

Volunteer for gender equality in schools and NGOs, by organizing and holding lessons in schools or taking part in initiatives managed by organizations that work in the field. Help women from other countries unlock their potential and raise awareness on the matter in the whole society.

To achieve gender equality, we all have to take action. Volunteer with AIESEC and empower women!

We all need to take action.

Spending six weeks in Mexico City challenged me to be a better person, to truly become a global citizen of the world

We, as young people are the ones responsible for the world we live in and we need to start taking ownership and action by breaching the international gaps. For me the best and most beneficial part of my experience was meeting the other volunteers and forming truly cross cultural relationships. Some of my closest friends at the moment are from Mexico, Venezuela, Poland and China and these connections will stay with me for life.

Hands down one of the most fulfilling experiences in my life.

Working in Buenos Aires with other interns from France, Nicaragua, Estonia and a fellow American gave me the most international experience I'll probably ever be able to get!
