 For many young people, participating in the Lions International Camp and Youth Exchange Program is a life-changing experience. Traveling to another country, living with a host family, participating in a camp and experiencing another culture are milestone events.
Unlike other exchange programs, the Lions International Youth Camp and Exchange Program is not conducted for tourism, education or employment. Instead, it is a unique cultural learning opportunity.
Types of Youth Exchanges
Exchanges can be arranged in any of the more than 190 countries in which Lions clubs exist. Most exchanges last between four and six weeks and the participant (ages 15-21) stays with one or more host families during the exchange. Participants experience life as part of their host family.
Camps are one or two weeks long and bring together young people (ages 16-22) from around the world. Camps usually include a family stay that lasts between one and four weeks. More than 100 Lions camps are held each year in about 39 countries. Activities include visits to places of cultural or natural interest, sports and country presentations by the camp participants.
