Local Membership Safety in Canada
We ensure that our membership strictly adheres to provincial and Federal public health authorities’ protocols regarding the COVID-19 Pandemic.
All AIESEC related activities since the start of the pandemic have been virtual, however, after extensive consideration and input from our communities we have decided to go forward with allowing more in-person operations and activities for our local chapters, following their universities' instructions as well as provincial and federal public health guidelines.
Please ensure that you are prioritizing your own health and wellbeing by:
following any local community or university guidelines if you feel unwell
Implementing self-imposed quarantine related to travel and/or potential exposure to COVID-19
Take normal health precautions such as washing and sanitizing your hands often and avoiding touching your eyes/nose/mouth.
We acknowledge that these are unprecedented times for all of us. AIESEC is here, as always, as a platform for you to develop your leadership and make a positive impact on your community.
