AIESEC can play important role in fostering positive thinking in Armenia
AIESEC prepare leaders and develop positive thinking, Nerses Yeritzyan RA minister of economy of Armenia said at the congress of the AIESEC International non-governmental student organization in Tsakhkadzor dedicated to 20th anniversary of the organization. "In our society there is no positive thinking, and AIESEC can play an important role. Positive thinking leads to action, and negative - to depression," the minister said.

As Nereses Yeritsyan mentioned, AIESEC is a result of market and global thinking, very important for the transformation of the society in Armenia. According to the minister, a big team has been formed, AIESEC will promote entrepreneurship and attract foreign investment, as sponsors of this organization are companies with a worldwide reputation.

AIESEC, the largest international, non-governmental youth organization, created after the Second World War, operates in 107 countries worldwide. Students of different universities and young professionals can become members of AIESEC, united by a common idea of a full and active participation in society. Founded in 1989, the Armenian branch of AIESEC became a full member of the organization in 1995.
