Working in GCDP ICX was a truly rewarding experience,

What

do they have
to say?

maybe one of the most intense and rewarding during my

whole stay in AIESEC. Seeing the trainees talk about how
joyful and happy they were, and seeing some of the most
sincere smiles of my whole life, really made me notice
how true and giving the work we do is.

Andr Vallim - Delivery Manager 2014.1

I met a dozen of new friends here and had the most

wonderful experience. The children were talented and extremely cute, and I wish to share all my time with them.
I have learned a lot of things about cooperation and leadership, and management as well, is of equal importance.
The whole time in Brazil will become my very precious life
experience.
