LC Innsbruck, Austria

Okay, probably I should really give you some basic input. IC means International Congress and it is the biggest AIESEC conference in the world. This year it connects 650 delegates from exactly 100 countries in Istanbul.
Concerning the weather here at the moment: it’s hot. Or to be more precise: it’s quite hot!! But as there’s a constant wind it’s however possible to survive.

Now as for today: today was really cool. They have a special LCPs track here, so I had functional trainings and meetings with other LCPs. Even though some of the input sessions were quite basic, I could take something out of other sessions as for example from the “communication” session where we talked about the new “I am an AIESECer” campaign that will be used for recruitment.

In the afternoon there were various tracks and as I had a free choice I took 2 sessions about Alumni involvement and Alumni Database. Afterwards we got the chance to have a first look at the new Global Information System of AIESEC that will be launched in November.

Guys, if they keep their promises, this new system will be a really cool tool. I’m looking forward to it, even though the migration from AIESEC.net to the new system will be a lot of work. But the concept is interesting. On the last day of IC we’ll get a more detailed insight.

If you are interested in the International Congress don’t hesitate to have a look at “live.myaiesec.net”. There you can as well get the output of the sessions we have here.

And don’t forget to have a look at the Vienna Blog. Martina posted a link to the video of the Austrian Role Call – the coolest Role Call of IC 2007. Austria performed “MfG” (Fantastische Vier) adapted to AIESEC :-D. Enjoy!!
