¿Qué es EduAction?

EduAction is a global educational project, developed by AIESEC in partnership with Gerdau, that brings young global-minded international leaders to public schools in Iberoamerica.

EduAction Exchange Program is 3 months long and takes place every semester.

The exchange participants of EduAction turn classrooms into multicultural global environments. The project starts with a special Summit and a month of preparation, including language classes. Then, during a period of 2 months they facilitate work-shops on topics like Cultural Diversity, Sustainability, Social Responsibility, Leadership, Innovation, and Personal Motivation.
 
EduAction aims to break the paradigms proposed by certain social realities and to awaken the minds of these young people enabling them to grow into tolerant, active citizens with a wider world view.

EduAction is developed in partnership with: GERDAU

The leading producer of long steel in the Americas, the biggest recycler in Latin America and one of the most important leaders in social responsibility in Brazil.

“The implementation of the partnership with AIESEC and the project Eduaction is a result that we have from a job that began in 2007. During this time I could work with several current members of AIESEC and I'm happy that the organization continues with all the strength and its spirit still present. Gerdau today supports AIESEC with hope that the organization is increasingly sustainable and that its members bring increasingly changes in organizations and society. I believe that the Project Eduaction is the beginning of a good relationship between the two organizations. As an alumnus of AIESEC, I am glad that the organization has grown these last years, there are new committees and a larger number of change agents being formed"
