The Central European Convention is a group of several IAESTE Members in the specific geographic region. Those are all "student-run" Countries - so Students are in the decision making positions. (Instead of Academic or Professional run Countries)

Those Countries agree to meet twice a year and hold working and discussion groups. And of course get to know the Culture of the hosting Country.
