In 2013, Aiesec Recife was the LC that grew the most in Brazil. Now we are
among the top 5 LCs in @BAZI. In 2014 we want to do even more. And even
better. Our commitment is to deliver leadership and development in each
XP, in the most impactful way for our EPs and our city. In order to do so, we
will be running five projects on an ongoing basis, throughout the year. In
this document you will information about the projects we will be running:
Gira Mundo, Driblando, X4Change, Smarketing and Gaia.
Project Description
Gira Mundo was developed to promote an inclusive, informative and fun
education environment. It enables NGOs that assist children and teenagers
to promote learning and discussion about issues of global interest.
Young university students from all over the world have the opportunity to
develop a cycle of lectures and educational activities about world-relevant
subjects, in order to create a generation of socially conscious and responsible
men and women. Gira Mundo also seeks to stimulate improvements in formal
education offered by schools and NGOs.
Gira Mundo is, today, one of the most well-received projects by NGOs
in Recife.
Project Description
Driblando is an attempt to use Brazilians passion for soccer and sports
into a powerful social change tool. The idea is to develop abilities such as
team work, leadership, holistic and strategic view in children and young
men and women. We want to empower them to think of their future and see
alternatives and opportunities to shape it through passion and hard work.
Young university students from all over the world have the opportunity
to teach and lead children and adolescents and develop workshops and
practices and contests about all kinds of sports. They will teach them the
rules and put them into practice. Its also important to talk about good
sportsmanship and how the children can apply the principles of sport to
their lives. In every NGO we developed Driblando, it was a huge success.
Project Description
Many third sector organizations offer some kind of social assistance, in
the form of language and computer teaching, by providing the people in
the community with the chance to fight for better jobs and living conditions.
However, due to the lack of volunteers with this kind of expertise, the
organizations are constantly struggling to hold frequent classes. X4Change
aims to bring native speakers to teach children, adolescent and adults and
help the NGOs to provide this important service to communities. English,
Spanish and Computer teaching are the main focus of the project.
Project Description
Its not unusual for NGOs and non-for-profit organizations to lack some
kind of expertise in management and marketing. Many times all they have
is good will, desire for change, and actually be doing something. But their
work and impact radius could be so much more effective and sustainable
if only they had the manpower and expertise to do so. Smarketing was
developed to fill this gap.
Talented university students, with background in marketing, communications
or management will have the opportunity to help NGOs from within. EPs will
do a diagnosis of the organization, identify their main needs, develop and
implement strategies to help them communicate more effectively with their
target audience, volunteers and sponsors, in order to strengthen their brand
and increase their sustainability.
Project Description
Environmental issues can not be ignored anymore. The human kind has
degraded the planet to its limit and the following years most likely will bring
a global crisis because of that. The world urgently needs leaders that are
conscious about the environment they live in and the needs of the Earth, if
we want any hope of a future. Gaia is a project focused on sustainability
environmental education. The idea is to develop workshops and activities to
raise awareness of global and local environmental issues and what are our
individual wholes in all that.
