JCI National & International Programs
JCI Australia members have the opportunity to participate in a number of programs that provide the opportunity to showcase the talents of young people in the organisation and the community at both a Local, National and International level. The benefits of a JCI Chapter conducting a project not only develops the leadership skills of its members but also raises awareness in the community of important social issues.
Some of the current issues that JCI Australia have focused on that impact on Young Australians include
- Health
- Education
- Business and career development
- Environment (Climate change)
- Youth
- Human rights and social equality
- Cultural awareness
Below is a summary of the some of the different JCI Programs that can be run at a Chapter and National Level. For further information go to JCI Programs
