Great Success: PR Database online! :-)

With pleasure, PRWG announces the new PR online database for PR material for AEGEE!
The database will serve as an interim solution till the new aegee.org/intranet is finally ready to use.
The entire material and its structure will be shifted then towards its new destination.
You can upload your material yourself with an FTP programme or send the material to the PRWG board and we upload it for you.
After a pretty long time and many discussions on where to put the database, how to manage its administration and how to manage the upload, the interim Database solution seems to be an excellent option!
Thanks goes to Isa who was mainly in charge of the project and to Francesco for his IT-knowledge and solutions for the actual implementation! Excellent guys! Well done :-)

CD communication: Communication and Transparency Recovery Package online!

After the non-approved Activity Report of the CD at the Agora in Magusa and the positive Vote of Confidence, it was time to chance something in the communication with the entire (!) AEGEE-network.
The result is this great Recovery Package containing two pages where the CD clearly elaborates its new communication and transparency working style towards the network.
We are curiously looking forward to the implementation of all these very concrete measures which are mentioned and hope the best for the network and the association!
The Package can be find here:

We are proud to announce that PRWG budget 2009 is approved for the majority of its calls! :-)
We will dispose of a total amount of 830 euros to publish the PR Guide, print new flyers and for the Board and Members Meeting.
Unfortunatly t-shirts for our members are not approved, but we will put all our efforts to find a sponsor for them ;-)

PRES1 postponed to Fall 2009


Initially, we wanted to provide you with the training already in May/June 2009. Due to many difficulties, we are now shifting the plans to September this year. The decision was made by the boards of the PRWG and the Academy, which with we are cooperating for our one-week public relations trainings PRES1 and PRES2.
We hope that soon we can provide you with more and good news :-)
