> I would say that my term started with lots of obligations and lots of
> difficult situations, but hopefully my experience in the Academy
> board as Secretary the term before, the help of my predecessors Magda
> and Carlos, the Academy board and people that believe in Internal
> Education, helped me a lot to feel more prepared and to deal with
> everything. ES Valladolid, ES Roma, PRES Novi Sad and FRES Katowice
> were the Internal Education events, all taking place in the first
> month of my term! And I can tell you it was quite a lot to deal
> with!!!!
>
> After Christmas holidays I worked with the Academy board and
> experienced Academy members on the concept of ES II, for which we had
> a meeting in Munich to discuss about it. And of course I have been in
> close contact and cooperation with AEGEE-Aachen to help them as much
> as possible to deal with the challenge that they took and keep them
> motivated!
>
> With the Academy board we worked on the Spring Education campaign,
> promoting the organisation of local training courses, for which we
> prepared a manual with directions and suggestions. And lots of local
> training courses have taken and are going to take place during this
> Spring to squeeze the best out of the AEGEE members. The Spring
> Education campaign was an effort to balance the lack of European
> Schools for 2002.
>
> Now that I am writing these lines, Fools School in Oradea is taking
> place, FR and SU training course (in cooperation with NetCom) and ES
> in Valencia is still ahead. I am definitely sure they are going to be
> successful and motivating!!!
>
> Of course all these would not have been possible without the
> cooperation and support of the Academy and especially the Academy
> board. Grzegorz, Sena. Betina, Mark, Lieuwe and Jaap helped my task
> more than words can say and I enjoyed the great spirit among us a
> great deal!!!!
>
> I am happy to say that dealing with the applications for the Council
> of Europe training courses was interesting as I received great
> feedback and interest from the network and I received a lot of
> applications that I had to evaluate and forward (which is not always
> the easiest thing to do!) Alper Akyuz from Istanbul participated at
> the Training for Trainers on Human Rights Education.
>
> As UNESCO responsible in the CD I cooperated very closely with
> Alessia Pastorutti, Liaison Officer for UNESCO and together we tried
> to improve our relationships with UNESCO. I represented AEGEE in the
> Liaison Committee of NGOs of UNESCO in December, accompanied by
> Krzysztof and had several meetings with different departments there
> (Higher Education, Youth Unit.) At the end of February, we arranged a
> meeting with the Youth Coordination Unit where Alessia and I
> presented AEGEE and discussed with the responsible there about future
> cooperation. We intend to arrange a meeting with the Director General
> in the near future as well.
>
> Being responsible for the contact with other NGOs means I am the one
> exchanging information and communicating with them and I organized
> (of course with the help of my fellow CD members) the reception for
> other youth NGOs taking place in the office on the 10th of January
> 2001. Moreover I participated at the seminar of the YOUTH FORUM on
> the Joint Actions of the DG Education and Culture taking place
> in Bruxelles 17-19th of February, where I established good contacts
> with other
> NGOs and the Youth Forum.
>
> Already 6 months have passed since Agora in Ankara and although I
> have been disappointed many times from situations or even from
> myself, I must admit that I am still in love with AEGEE ;)
