AEGEE25: Celebrating Legacies !!


In a time before history even began, something was happening in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea….Something Big….the building of megalithic temples, reincarnation rituals and the tracking of the sun…all done by pre-historic sea-going people on a small island now called Malta….this legacy commenced over 6,000 years ago…

25 years ago, a group of people led by Franck Biancheri in Paris all with ideas of a unified Europe founded EGEE I initiating a European legacy of youth ideals…

A silent city sits on top of a hill…Medina was its name…Full of noblemen houses and families this old capital city was sitting there enjoying the view for more than 5000 years…the nobility legacy started

20 years ago, AEGEE embraced its ideals and opened its doors to students in Central and Eastern Europe directed by the Quo Vadis Group…this legacy has extended up to the western slopes of the Ural Mountains…

On March 28th 1566, the Grandmaster La Vallette laid the first stone of the new capital City Valletta “a city built by gentlemen for gentlemen”… a legacy of Knights, commerce and festivities still lives in the walls of our Capital city for all to view…

14 years ago AEGEE’s Headquarters moved to Brussels…the capital of the EU…from there the legacy became bigger and more serious and huge projects were organised like “find Your Way” project in 1996.

The 1st of May 2004, was the day in which Maltese and Gozitan citizens became citizens of the European Union. This opening of a new chapter brought a legacy of change and advancement in Malta

Today, the AEGEE network has grown rapidly with a legacy active in more than 240 university cities in 43 European countries, making it the biggest European Association ever…

So let’s join these legacies of cultural richness, mind blowing quests and dates to remember and let’s celebrate in Maltese and AEGEEAN style the years of success which made us who we are. Let’s party down AEGEE’s 25 years on sandy beaches in Malta, or explore these years whilst walking down the Gozitan bastions of Cittadella or basking in the sun next to the Blue Lagoon…one may either dream of sunburnt legacies, majestic architectural achievements or else live them by joining us this summer for yet another AEGEE-Valletta unforgettable event.
