Working Groups

Working Groups carry out the thematic work of AEGEE-Europe. AEGEE members from all over Europe share common interests. To express their visions and share their knowledge and experience international working groups are created, organising discussions, conferences and other events in their topics in different countries of Europe.

Project Teams

Some of AEGEE’s aims are easier to achieve by creating dedicated projects for them: these projects, while fulfilling their aims give birth to discussions, publications and events closely related to a well-defined topic.
The following projects are being worked on at the moment:
Summer University
Eastern Parnership Project
Democracy in Practice
Election Observation Project

Policy Officers

AEGEE’s Policy Officers serve as an extension to the Comité Directeur, supporting with the thematic dimension of AEGEE’s work. Their task is to consolidate AEGEE’s opinion on key issues internally and represent it towards our stakeholders externally.

Liaison Officers

The Liaison Officers are the face of AEGEE to the outside. On this way, AEGEE can defend its point of view to international social organisations. For example, AEGEE has liaison offices for the United Nations, the UNESCO and the European youth organizations.

AEGEE-Academy

AEGEE-Academy is an international organization that focuses on non-formal education.
