AmpliFIRE The name of the National Team was Amplifire, what this meant was every success that ever was or has ever existed in AIESEC in Uganda; this was the time to amplify and to magnify them. It was time to show the world what AIESEC in Uganda was all about, it was time to prove to ourselves that we can….!!!!! Coming to the end of our term, I can say that we have achievedtremendously, above and beyond what all our predecessors had ever achieved. This year we have honored those how came before us and made them proud about AIESEC in Uganda. And inspired the future as well Being the Top most performing Country in Africa for 3 months consecutively, realizing 150 exchanges in just 6 months. With all these, I really want to thank the National Team for AIESEC in Uganda09/10 for sticking together even when it was tough – that the time you get to know what strong men are made of. The Local Chapter Presidents from all the 6 university for really supporting the National Team and ensuring that there Directors and Members Understood what AIESEC was all about and hence became committed and delivered results. Lastly to all the BOAs from the National to the Local BOATeam, for keeping AIESEC in Uganda in Check and offering unlimited time and advice. And as you read this publication, I hope you are going to enjoy it and mostly be inspired to take an active role in AIESEC, as a Partner, as a Member, as an alumnus, as a BOA and everyone else.

For 16 years now, AIESEC in Uganda has dedicated itself towards the development of individuals with an overridingcommitment of providing an integrated learning experience which comprises providing to its members Leadership opportunities, Participating in a Global Learning Environment and International Internship. 2008/2009 saw the expansion of AIESEC in Uganda from the traditional 2 universities to 4 new universities. Bringing the total of AIESEC presence in the Universities to 6. In July 2009, as the National Teamof AIESEC in Uganda, we were posed by yet another challenge, a challenge to ensure that all the Local Committees had proper structures to support operations and sustainable growth, a challenge to ensure that the finances of the organization were growing steadily with proper governance and challenge of ensuring that Every day, Every Member was going through a life changing experience, an experiencethat they would live to cherish and treasure. Driving growth through university chapters (LCs) The strategy was driving growth through all the 6 Local Committees, to ensure that the National Team was not doing all the operational work, but purely dealing with strategic issues and also to ensure that there was proper Knowledge Management and that every Member was empowered and owned up vision ofthe Local Committees, in order to ensure growth. Governance and Accountability This involved introducing the New Financial model which was legislated at the National Planning Conference, forming a Board Of Advisors structure for the university chapters and the national team to follow, Formulating a Coaching structure that enable the university chapters to be able to report to the national team andas well for the national team to let the university chapters know what we were doing. This also entailed sorting all the legality issues – ensuring that AIESEC was recognized by every University Administration that AIESEC is present in. This also meant that the AIESEC in Uganda as the National Body be legally registered to the office of Registrar of Companies.

Yours Faithfully,

Regards,...
