 why @way refreshment now?

Currently in the AIESEC Way Toolkit

Why now? Major environment shift in the world (COVID 19) has forced AIESEC to disrupt
itself and pivot. While this is happening it is important that the organization reviews and adapt
its core messaging to be up to date with what is happening externally and internally in AIESEC.
A refreshment aims to bring a renewed sense of purpose to our members in times where
everything is uncertain and new.
