Mediation Commission (MedCom) is one of the youngest bodies in AEGEE. Even though it had its predecessor – Members Commission (MemCom) – its work is still an enigma for many of the AEGEE members. But for few brave AEGEEans it is not only more than clear but also a nice interesting challenge. This year they are just with three people… Read more →
Landing in a city you do not know, exploring the cultural and administrative habits of a foreign country and all this time – searching for new friends. It is not a rare case when in such a situation AEGEE has come in extremely handy with helping people integrate faster and better in a new environment once they have started their… Read more →
“Be aware! Leadership Summer School (LSS) may change your life! – and they are not even sorry…”– says Helene Winnecke Jensen and this caught me on the hook. What is so unique about the LSS everybody is talking about? The AEGEEan is here to investigate for you. Firstly I go to the website and find out that Leadership Summer School… Read more →
The AEGEEan journalist Liliya Buyukliyska was again in front of the familiar door at Rue du Noyer 55. The house is described as with AEGEE spirit everywhere – from the stickers to the charm of the office. During the dinner talks about musical festivals and shower troubles it is visible that those people are more than a family and enjoy it… Read more →
Being at a same local with Elena let me know her and the way she works since almost the moment I joined AEGEE (already four years ago). But I got acquainted with her meticulous attention to detail at a Youth in Action event in Bratislava. Once you see her suitcase or her room you will know that you deal with… Read more →
It is hard to say ‘former editor-in-chief’of the AEGEEan. Hard, because I remember how it all started, how we chose Stephanie and how I took People’s section because there was nothing else left (the greatest ‘punishment’ for being late). Now – a year and a half later – everything looks different. The AEGEEan is well-known, follows strict standards for publishing… Read more →
It is a true Brussels day. It’s raining and the sky has the colour of concrete. After following the instructions of Miguel Gallardo, I arrive to find that the house is almost empty. At least, I am welcomed by the only person I don’t expect – Manos Valasis. Really? Manos in the house? Obviously, this house was the best decision… Read more →
25 years of fun. 25 years of cultural exchange. 25 years of Summer University (SU) Project. This is a whole life for people like me… and even more for some newbies. This is a great achievement and for sure deserves to be commemorated. Thus it was not surprising to see an email about a 25th anniversary booklet for this project.… Read more →
Leading such a big project as Summer University for sure is a challenge. But to do it for the second time and simultaneously start from scratch a new international project…That would be for sure a challenge for many AEGEEans. But not for Hara. Maybe because she answers e-mails in few minutes or she is attached to Skype all her free… Read more →
Every day we are bumping into news about violence… And they somehow pass by us. Hundreds of dead people in Syria, plane crash in Nigeria or army beating protesting people in Egypt. We are so used to hear them that somehow we have stopped realising what they mean. We have stopped till the moment it happens in our “home.” As… Read more →
