AEGEE as a brand?
In response to changes in the world of communication, AEGEE needs to create an own new, catchy and visible visual identity, basing on AEGEE's values. Therefore the PRWG in co-operation with the Comité Directeur created a Working Team on AEGEE's Visual Identity. The team consists of:
- Bartek Kotowicz (coordinator)
- Marek Urban
- Michal Majewski
- Ramon Martinez
- Freddy Lopomo and
- Mateusz Zapart
These six guys divided already the tasks and will start with an analysis of AEGEE's current viusal identity. Then they will create a proposal for a new visual identity - having a look also at the visual identity of other students associations - which will be presented to the PRWG, the Comité Directeur and the network. If the proposal will be accepted, they will also implement it.
PRWG is curious about their results and ideas!

PRWG workshop at the EBM in Delft
In AEGEE, one of the best ways of advertising our events and activities is through publications, such as Key to Europe, One Europe Magazine, News Bulletin…, amongst others. Therefore, due to the importance of publications in AEGEE, a workshop was held at EBM Delft about publications, with the title “Evaluate it, Shape it, Make it – Publications in AEGEE”.
During this workshop we discussed the production cycle of a publication, since the first open all for the editorial team until the final distribution of publications. From this discussion two main problems raised: transportation and printing, both of them coming, actually, from the money problem. Printing the publications in different printing houses or printing everything in one printing house can be a way out to solving money issues.
During this first discussion, some ideas and suggestions were made on how to improve publications in AEGEE and their visibility. Publications are not well known among AEGEE members, it takes too much time for them to reach the targeted members and the target group of each publication is not always clearly defined.
On the second part of the workshop, participants brainstormed about what an ideal publication should consist in, taking into considerations a separation between internal and external publications. We then continued with 3 ideas of publications, of which extracted one, we defined its target group, the means of reaching it (using IT technologies, such as PDF, Newsletters, websites and Videos, etc.), its content and objectives.
As a final result from this workshop, the main idea is that publications do need to be restructured and stated clearer why they are created, thus, another workshop on improving publications is needed, as participants definitely showed interest on it.
If you want to read more about the PRWG workshop in Delft, you can find the detailed minutes on our mailing list PRWG-L!! Or you can simply join our future workshops on publications … maybe in Ljubljana … who knows??
