Organised by the AIESEC chapter of Curtin Sarawak, Curtin Global Village aims to promote cross-cultural understanding among members of the local community, giving them the opportunity to interact with people of different nationalities and cultural backgrounds.
Participants will get the opportunity to watch colourful cultural performances, sample a wide range of different cuisines and take part in games and lucky draws.
The first prize winner in the lucky draw will be entitled to a RM600 administrative fee waiver for AIESEC’s exchange programme, the Global Citizen. The programme allows students and recent graduates to volunteer abroad for 6 to 8 weeks, connecting them to voluntary projects across the world.
AIESEC is a non-profit Global Youth Leadership organisation run by students and recent graduates of institutions of higher learning. Curtin Sarawak was the first higher education institution in East Malaysia to have an AIESEC chapter.
