Global Village and Opening Ceremony of IC

Hey, dear AIESEC Estonia!

The very first day of every International Congress is always celebrated by the official opening and Global Village, but this IC is very special one, as the whole organization is celebrating its 60th anniversary around the globe this year. It’s one of the richest and flashy celebration of success of our organization since it was established in 1948 after the II WW, capitalizing on what was achieved and what impact brings AIESEC to country communities until now.

Speech of PAI - Juan

Brazilian capoeira show

Gaucho dancers 

Congress Committe team - around 60 people from 25 countries, they are really doing a great job here

One of the most amazing events when the International Congress starts is Global Village, when more than 106 countries of AIESEC present their diverse cultures and nationalities and everyone has the opportunity to know more about them - it's a showcase of the countries through this festival of music, food, drink and traditional clothes.

AIESEC Estonia was one of the most beautiful delegation at the Global Village and all the time we were more than welcome to be taken the pictures with us and visitors as well as IC delegtes were interested to know more about our country, food and cultural features.
