LEAP - AIESEC Research Initiative to Palestine 2006-2008

The last two days have been kind of a roller coaster. AIESEC University was lower than expected. At least the case studies we had to work on had been interesting and challenging.
At the evening of Sept. 1nd Brodie, former president of AIESEC (PAI), had held a very nice speech about the last year. But i did not listen, sorry...had to work on the application for the Economic Forum this week.

The evening was horrible! The agenda scheduled "Blind dates" and hardly anybody had a clue what this might mean.
The CC had matched similar countries. They should meet in quiet rooms and see how the meetings continued. Germany met with Ukraine - and it was another amazing experience at this year's IC...
It was a really stupid session loosing time when we could have done something really productive. But this one was redundant...

At the same time Global Legislation took place. A new and important rule was legislated: Before an expansion is allowed to start the whole initiative has to be accepted by the majority of the MCPs. That means we have to pass this process as well since Palestine is no extension country yet.

Yesterday evening the Formal Dinner officially closed the IC. With a nice show of piano-jokes, modern dances and the UBS awards for best performing countries it was a pretentious evening. But since expectations on this night had been higher it was all in all not an outstanding event...

Right now we are in the last session called Pimp my Plan. Going through the country plans again we shall consolidate our plans...
