this LC to a greater state.

LC History and Reality AIESEC in SOC was formed on December 25 2013

by the initiative of AIESEC in EiABC to expand to

Addis Ababa School of Commerce. Since then, even

though the LC had several raises; the LC has never

had any kind of realizations regarding exchanges.

Since the LC is at a such a young stage, it has room

to grow and do great things. It will all depend on the
