AIESEC en Argentina

What AIESEC en Argentina does

AIESEC en Argentina is the Argentine national chapter of AIESEC International, a global youth leadership movement founded in 1948 and established in Argentina in 1972. The organization is a non-profit that runs international volunteer, professional internship, and teaching exchange programs targeting youth aged 18-30, alongside a host-family initiative. It operates through 8 local committees (comités locales) across Argentina, staffed by 100+ volunteer members, and has facilitated more than 200 cumulative exchanges in-country. Beyond the Argentine footprint, AIESEC Argentina is embedded in a global federation spanning 100+ countries and territories, with 3,500+ active members worldwide and 100,000+ students impacted globally.

The core product portfolio comprises three fee-based exchange programs and one free host-family program. Voluntario Global places participants in 6-8 week SDG-aligned volunteer projects at NGOs or schools abroad, priced at $500 USD (approximately $725,000 ARS). Global Talent places participants in professional internships at multinationals, startups, and SMEs for 3 months to 1.5 years, tiered at $550-$650 USD ($797,500-$942,500 ARS). Profesor Global places educators in teaching roles at schools or NGOs for 3 months to 1.5 years, tiered at $500-$600 USD ($750,000-$870,000 ARS). Familia Global (under the Casitas Globales umbrella) is a non-fee program that recruits Argentine families to host inbound exchange participants during their NGO volunteer placements. Distribution combines a self-serve web registration flow on aiesec.org and Podio webforms with field-driven recruitment through the local committee network, alongside organic social marketing on LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and a Spotify podcast.

The revenue model is centered on participant program fees, which AIESEC Argentina uses to cover administrative costs, accommodation support, immigration processes, local committee services, digital infrastructure, promotion, and dues to AIESEC International. The customer base is highly diffused: end-customers are individual youth aged 18-30 (consumer/long-tail), while host partners span NGOs, schools, multinationals, startups, and SMEs across multiple industries. There is no venture or external equity backing; the entity is a non-profit foundation chapter whose parent is AIESEC International, also a non-profit foundation.
