To operate a high quality practical training exchange program between members in order to enhance technical and professional development and to promote international understanding and goodwill amongst students, academic institutions, employers and the wider community.
IAESTE operates irrespective of race, colour, sex or creed.
IAESTE AUSTRALIA
IAESTE Australia was administered on a voluntary basis from 1996 to 2006 by former academics of Swinburne University of Technology. Whilst IAESTE Australia acts on behalf of all Australian universities, Swinburne recognised the value of this organisation and in late 2006 provided a home for IAESTE Australia to continue providing this service to students and their respective universities. Since then IAESTE Australia has been hosted by Swinburne on behalf of Australian universities.
IAESTE INTERNATIONAL
The international body of IAESTE is a non-political, independent non-governmental organisation maintaining consultative or operational relationship with various agencies of the United Nations including UNESCO and UNIDO.
