The AEGEE Youth UnEmployment (YuE) Project Team decided to skip the traditional Skype meeting and instead meet up in Brussels. The team held their meeting in AEGEE head office between the 12th and the 14th of April with the project leader, Florence Franks (European School of Entrepreneurship – ESE); Beata Matuszka (Comité Directeur); FR Responsible, David García Rodríguez (AEGEE-León); and PR Responsible, Iina Lietzén present.
The weekend included not only crazy teambuilding moments, but above all intensive discussions on how to bring the YuE project to a higher level. A physical meeting is a good way to boost the energy and get more effective. Teambuilding is very important in order to keep everyone interested and motivated about the project and their tasks – and with the help of Beata, the YuE team definitely got more energy. Moreover, fulfilling the cooking duties, planning and preparing dinner for everyone staying at the head office, certainly builds up the team spirit!
The biggest topic was the new round of the European School of Entrepreneurship (ESE) – a training that aims at equipping the participants with a complete overview of how to set up and run their own enterprise/business. The preparation for the third ESE just started with a new energy and motivation. The YuE team is working hard on this project but also aims higher – other new initiatives will hopefully also see the light in 2013!
