AIESEC in Namibia is a registered non-governmental organisation, and exists as a member committee of AIESEC International. We provides the youths of Namibia with leadership development and cross-cultural global internship and volunteer exchange experiences across the globe, with a focus to empower young people so they can make a positive impact on society. The AIESEC network includes over 100,000 members in 126 countries and territories. It is the largest youth-run organization in the world.

AIESEC is a global youth network that aims to impact the world through leadership development experiences. It envisions "Peace and fulfilment of humankind's potential" by developing globally-minded leaders that live by its six core values: Activating Leadership, Demonstrating Integrity, Living Diversity, Enjoying Participation, Striving for Excellence, and Acting Sustainably.

AIESEC in Namibia began as an expansion initiative from AIESEC In Germany. It was founded by two amazing young leaders: Matthias Kunz and Djamila Silva in January 2013. They managed and grew the committee until June 2014.

Just like every other member committee around the world, AIESEC in Namibia is run by a democratically elected peer leadership team, working full-time out of the national office in Windhoek for a one-year term (from 01 July to 30 June).

Today
As of May 2015, AIESEC in Namibia is run by three astounding young leaders who began their leadership term in July 2014:

- Kerstin Svedhem (National President)

- Marie Malcherek (National Vice President, Incoming Exchange & Talent Management)

- Sylver Kibelolaud (National Vice President, Outgoing Exchange & Communications).

Campus Involvement
AIESEC provides a platform for students in different universities and colleges, by going on an international internship and/or by joining various local chapters. These young individuals can develop their leadership potential by working and leading teams. Associate membership opportunities allow the students to work with various NGO partners of AIESEC, and represent their college as a part of campus ambassador program.The organizations products are Team Member Programme (TMP), Team Leader Programme(TLP), Incoming exchange (ICX) and Outgoing Exchange (OGX).

Each year we provide several opportunity to live and work in a foreign country. Participants can choose to work in areas of management, technology, education, or development; helping to build one’s corporate skills.
