About SEP's organizers: part 2



In our last post we talked about one of SEP's organizers, AIESEC. Now we're gonna tell a bit about SEP's other national organizer, which is The Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS).












Royal Bank of Scotland PLC was founded in Edinburgh in the year 1727 and ever since it has grown significantly. Together with other well known names of the Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC, such as NatWest, Ulster Bank, Coutts or Citizens, provides financial services. At the end of the year 2007, RBS successfully lead the bid to acquire ABN AMRO, and in Romania the bank became RBS in October 2008.

The partnership with AIESEC Romania resulted in the foundation of the Sustainability Education Program, a cooperation based on the many years experience of working together with positive results for both organizations and the specific needs of the local environment.

The Sustainability Education Program was launched in March 2007 and contributed to the education on sustainable development of young people in Romania, through theoretical dimensions and also through implementation of practical activities. The pilot program was implemented in eight Romanian cities: Bucharest, Braşov, Cluj-Napoca, Constanţa, Galaţi, Iaşi, Oradea and Sibiu. You can find the results of the 2007-2008 edition here.

Thank you RBS for your continuous support and may this year's edition surpass everyone's expectations :)
