For many young people, participating in the Lions Youth
Exchange Program is a life-changing experience. Travelling
to another country, living with a host family, and experiencing another
culture are milestone events. Every year since 1961, young people have participated in
the Lions International Youth Exchange Program.
The goal of the program is:
To create and foster a spirit of understanding among the
peoples of the world.
Unlike other exchange programs, the Lions International
Youth Exchange Program is not conducted for tourism, education, or employment.
Instead, it is a unique cultural learning opportunity.
Participants of the Lions International Youth Exchange
Program must:
(a) Be between the ages 16 and 21. However due to recent government changes some countries will
not accept exchangees under 17.
(b) Be nominated by a Lions,
Lioness or Leo Club.
