2. Contribution to Global Network
Over the past 12 months, AIESEC UWA has continued its tradition of not
being only active nationally but globally as well. AIESEC UWA strives to offer
its members a life-changing experience through exchange as well as CEEDs
and international conferences. We believe that a connection to our global
network is crucial in allowing members to develop themselves further and for
them to establish a deep bond with our organisation.
Currently, AIESEC UWA has strong ties with AIESEC Victoria in New
Zealand. This bond was established at APXLDS 2011 and has flourished
since. Communication with the LCP, VP ICX, VP TM and VP MAC are
regular in order to help one another achieve its goals. The partnership with
AIESEC Victoria also involves sending videos (dances, chants) to one
another monthly.
AIESEC Victoria and AIESEC UWA work well together and will continue to
do, given the similarity in the reality of both LCs.
3. Contribution to Global Network
Over the past 12 months, AIESEC
UWA has encouraged its members to
get involved in the various avenues
that the organisation offers globally.
AIESEC UWA sent 5 delegates to
APXLDS 2012 in Japan, whereby
close ties were built with Belgium,
Poland, Russia, The Philippines and
Furthermore, AIESEC UWA has also urged
many more. Attendance at the
members to go on other countries’ national
conference has helped AIESEC UWA
conferences in order to have a sense of
in pre-matching our SLAP interns
AIESEC’s global impact. As such, we have
and in being involved with AIESEC
had 2 delegates at Poland’s National
Moscow’s project for Australian EPs.
Conference in December, 1 facilitator at
AIESEC Rzeszow’s conference and 1
delegate at AIESEC Nottingham’s induction

4. Contribution to Global Network
In addition to conferences, AIESEC UWA
has encouraged its members to get involved
in CEEDs. Currently, we have a CEED in
external communications at AIESEC CBS,
Denmark. This CEED is year-long and is
being done whilst our member is completing
her study exchange program.
AIESEC UWA has also been lucky to have a CEED from AIESEC Jaipur,
India. Currently, the LCP of AIESEC Jaipur is working with AIESEC UWA to
attract Rio Tinto to our Global Workforce Solutions Program. Communication
between our VPBD and the LCP has been regular and meetings with Rio
Tinto are scheduled. The CEED will go for a duration of 2 months, in which
the LCP of AIESEC Jaipur will complete this internship with Rio Tinto.
5. Contribution to Global Network
As mentioned previously, attendance of our VPOGX at APXLDS 2012 has
established strong links between the LC and AIESEC Moscow.
AIESEC Moscow is planning a project, to be realised in November-
December, for Australian EPs only. Through talks and negotiation at
APXLDS, AIESEC UWA has been the LC communicating and working on
the Moscow project. Even though, AIESEC UWA could have kept the14
places the project offers for itself, the partnership has been moved from an
AIESEC UWA to an AIESEC Australia partnership.
Our VPOGX has sent several emails to the VP OGX around the nation and
as a result, 7 LCs are interested in participating in the project.
6. Contribution to National Network
AIESEC UWA has established itself a strong entity in the national network with
many GCPs including our marketing strategy, LC structure and extensive talent
management plans.
As such, the LC has undertaken further responsibility in helping other LCs
around the nation build strong foundations for future growth. AIESEC UWA is
passionate about growth of the LC and the nation as over the past two years,
AIESEC UWA has grown tremendously. We believe that with the right
foundations and right mentality, anything is possible.

ANU Hosting Agreement
Over the past 12 months, AIESEC UWA and
AIESEC ANU have worked closely together due to
our hosting agreement. Despite ups and downs
and the distance that separates us, both parties
have continuously tried to help one another and to
remain in contact.
Through the hosting agreement, AIESEC ANU has benefitted from being
represented at SM day through the WA SM, has had support and guidance virtually
from the UWA EB, particularly in the areas of talent management and business
development, and have had access to WA’s regional support teams in finance and
business development, marketing and outgoing exchange.
Moreover, AIESEC ANU has benefitted from being part of the WANU region. They
have gained a sense of belonging to the region and have thoroughly enjoyed
representing WAR at VicCon 2012 and at WA’s StateCon.

Curtin Hosting Agreement
Over the past six months, AIESEC UWA has worked closed with its
membership base at Curtin University to enable our organisation to have a
bigger impact regionally and nationally.
Throughout this time, AIESEC UWA has extensively reached out to Curtin
through several avenues including functional coaching chats in business
development, marketing, outgoing exchange, finance and talent
management.
This guidance and support has recently been formalised through Curtin’s
expansion application. According to the agreement between both parties, the
formalised matrix structure whether Curtin becomes an expansion or is an
extension of AIESEC UWA. Through this agreement. AIESEC UWA will guide
Curtin through re-strategizing its LC plan and monthly tracking. Furthermore,
functional tracking and coaching will be done by AIESEC UWA’s EB on a
fortnightly basis.
9. Contribution to National Network
Furthermore, AIESEC UWA is currently in the planning stages of the website
(EP Blog) that won the LC solutions challenge at VicCon 2012.
Such website will involve a map of the world, on which, photos will be placed
on the places that we have sent EPs to as a nation. When one clicks on the
photos, the EP’s blog, photos and videos will open in another page.
The cost of the website has been approved by the Local Committee
Development Fund and will be up and running by the start of semester 2,
