Youth Exchange Program

The Lions International Youth Exchange program was established in 1961 to give youth the opportunity to foster a spirit of cultural understanding among the people of the world.

Due to current travel restrictions, the Youth Exchange Program is collaborating with a number of Lions Districts that operate local youth camps that aim to foster leadership skills and encourage meaningful connections among 15 to 21-year-old Australians. We are looking forward to relaunching Youth Exchange as soon as we are able – stay tuned!
