INFO SESSION HELD AT ZANZIBAR INSTITUTE OF FINANCIAL ADMINISTRATION

On the 31st of January 2016, I had the opportunity to attend an informative session for several students from different institutions in Zanzibar. The event was graced by 2 externals Dr. Estella Hassan (ZIFA extension matron) and ZANTEL Company.The event was attended by 45 students from several institution most of which came from ZIFA being the host. Dr Estella promised the delegation that she’ll see to it that AIESEC grows in ZIFA considering she got to be made aware of what the organization is all about. However, ZANTEL representative gave a wonder-ful remark as regards AIESEC and informed the delegates that ZANTEL are so much interested in reaching out to the youths in Zanzibar and as such, ZIFA will always be the first to know about what opportunities are available for students.

The event went well and we are expecting to have a minimum of 15 realiza-tions from the outcome of the info-session. More of which will come from students from ZIFA. However, with their level of progress (getting poten-tial members, having a matron who can speak on their behalf with the uni-versity administration, ZANTEL & Fastjet involvement), I think ZIFA Ex-pansions will grow to becoming a standing Local Committee in the near future. According to the ZANTEL representative who graced the event, he made mention he’ll be responsible for the overall operations of ZAN-TEL in Zanzibar and he’ll be more than ready to work with AIESEC pro-vided we provide a platform to get across to young people in Zanzibar.

Visiting the College of Business Education DodomaOn the 31st of January 2016, AIESEC in Tanzania received an invitation from CBE Dodoma to at-tend a special event hosted by the student government for the purpose of introducing AIESEC to the students and to also make awareness of her programs so eventually operations begin and then we have AIESEC in CBE Dodoma later in the future. I got the opportunity to represent AIESEC in Tanzania and travelled to Dodoma on the 5th February to give a presentation about AIESEC.However, after the event that was graced by over 50 young students of CBE, further discussions were made on how to begin operations in order to attain membership with AIESEC in Tanzania.“The idea of AIESEC coming to give a talk about its works, visions and goals came about when I had the opportunity of meeting other university leaders who were already members of the remarkable organiza-tion. I personally have been so much impressed with the works of AIESEC and it pushed me in striving to ensure that AIESEC begins operations full time in my college CBE Dodoma. Should this eventually happen, we definitely will encourage our neighboring institutions to get involved with AIESEC through us and also they could possibly become a chapter of their own. We are very much grateful to AIESEC in Tanzania and we can assure you that the idea was well received by CBE members and we have prom-ised to play our role with immediate effect in the course to establish an AIESEC in CBE Dodoma”.

Global village 2016 saw about 20 nationalities partici-pate and ‘Karate’ amongst other activities were performed.

Key Highlights

The african-german youth initiative (agyi) is a multi-lateral initiative of the german government and the african union commission aimed at enhancing youth exchange and mobility between african coun-tries and germany in the context of education for sustainable devel-opment. The intention is to contribute to the development of essen-tial competencies and skills in young people from african countries and from germany in this field. The agyi will contribute on a global level to building on and strengthening global partnerships for a sus-tainable development (as expressed in the sdg 2030 agenda, goal 17).On the african side the agyi will contribute to furthering the vi-sions and objectives of african union’s agenda 2063 of the afri-can charter (art. 10/11), The african youth decade 2009-2018, plan of action and of regional and national youth policies in af-rican countries for youth empowerment and development.On the german side, the agyi is a key element of the new afri-ca policy of the german federal ministry for economic coop-eration and development (bmz). The agyi supports strategies for strengthening civil society participation and volunteerism. As an organization present in one of the three pilot coun-tries, aiesec in tanzania expressed interest in undertaking this task to participate in the agyi as implementing partners. As part of the selection process and appraisal, the initiating partners visited us in our office for further discussions and communications, and its our hope to emerge as the selected organization from tanzania.

INCOMING GLOBAL INTERSHIP PROGRAM

By Dickson Luhikula,AIESEC NEWS

Welcome to this section. As you read, I am sure you will be able to grasp what it is that we are actually doing. It is so moving to see the kind of be-lief and passion companies we work with have for us to deliv-er such leadership experiences. This was formerly known Global Internship Program. In summa-ry, the Global Talent Program enables companies to access in-ternational talent/interns across the AIESEC network while it

enables these young individuals to develop professionally. This also help the companies with sustainable international hu-man resources as well as the CSR plan. AIESEC believes in youth leadership development - the leadership elements we strive to instill in youths through the program are being Self-aware, Solution-oriented, Empower-ing Others andWorld Citizen.The AIESEC team here is re-sponsible to create internship

opportunities through compa-nies that agree to partner and work with us. Many of the interns this year are engaged in sales & marketing, finance, accounting, HR, administration among oth-er fields. And also work closely with the company to ensure the interns actually are developing and meeting their expectations to see them grow in their career.

AIESEC in SAUT create 5 Internship Opportunities with their University for Young Africans

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

6 Teaching Internship Opportunities created by AIESEC in MzumbeAIESEC in Mzumbe for the first time have been able to create 6 opportunities for teaching under fields of commerce, science, literature, ICT. This was not done in a day but rather series of activities. Happiness George, the Local Chap-ter Vice President – Global Intern-ship Program had the following to say:“At the AIESEC National Planning Conference , I set a goal of creating 5 internship oppor-tunities. The first quarter came by, but noth-ing was achieved. We went through several talks to get ideas on how best to come up with the opportunities but all these were on paper.One morning after several analysis, I had to en-sure that my Team leader tracked my activities so that I meet our goals – which he did always. I started to master making my to-do-list which guided me on how to work on my scheduled tasks and eventually started doing the sales meetings hence my research paid off after meeting up with Morogoro International School which actually picked interest in taking interns from AIESEC.

From this whole period of six months, I got learn to be consistent in what we plan and above all have some one always reminding me of what I promised to do as per the plan so that I get motivated and inspired. Thanks to such support that now, we man-aged to create 6 Teaching Internship Oppor-tunities for young people across English na-tive speaking countries to come and have their professional development in Tanzania.”

“In the company, I am given lots of respon-sibility and the freedom to manage things as I see fit. I have also been able to build a training and management programme here which focuses on developing our employees to grow with the company.”

“The company is relatively young, just founded, so one has to face prob-lems he or she has to solve. I consid-er it empowerment since the company requires employees to work on their own being able to solve these issues.”

Till to date, for the year 2015-2016, we have received 22 interns and counting. One of the Leadership qualities we aim for our interns to develop along the in-ternship is “EMPOWERING OTHERS”. This quality describes the ability of an individual to communicate ideas clearly, engage in meaningful conversation with others, and co-create space of collabora-tion that empower people to take action.

Today we share a few highlights from our past survey with the interns cur-rently in the country to know how they feel empowered and how they have managed to empower others.

Empowerment during the Internship


BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

It has been great starting working with OCs for the upcoming events. This have really chal-lenged me to be able to work with people of dif-ferent backgrounds, attitudes and mindsets. Making all of them to have that same perspec-tive and ownership of their roles hasn’t been easy. Recently I have learn to be patience when necessary, to trust and my emotional inter-agency has been challenged so many times. I’m looking forward to many stories of growth, self awareness,self esteem and much more from my amazing OC teams. Every day they are ready to face their fears I’m sure we will get inspired from their experiences.One of my highs for this month was going for a marketing call and our partners are giving good feedbacks of what we do. This encouraged me

to keep delivering more because we add value to our partners. A satisfied customer is always a happy customer and I will keep doing my best working on the feedbacks to add more value for both sides. Thanks to CRDB and Standard Char-tered for your encouragement and feedbacks.It always fills good to go an extra mile and cre-ating milestones. I’m happy to share with you that soon we are going to add a new national partner from a new sector which we have nev-er worked with and I’m sure we will attract oth-ers of same to partner with us. For now I cant tell the name till next month when they offi-cially become nations partners. I’m an Archer and always facing my fears, I’m proud of my MC team they are moulding me to be a true Archer.

TALENT MANAGEMENT

Looking into the Impact of Achievers to members

My turn to give back to fellow YouthsIt is three years now since I joinrd AIESEC, I have learnt a lot of things since then. It has also helped me to live in a diverse environment learning other peoples cultures and ways of living and mostly travel to different countries as a process of becoming a Global Citizen. All this has opened my eyes and turned me to a new and a different person compared to a previous me.Now I am able to justify to a young person how important this organization is to their personal development. I give my great thanks to AIESEC for changing my life and for that, it is my turn to to give back what I have earned to my fellow Tanzanian youths.
