About Junior Chamber International

JCI (Junior Chamber International) is a worldwide federation of young leaders and entrepreneurs. We are 200,000 active JCI members and millions of JCI alumni participating in projects, meetings, learning programs and events. JCI thrives in more than 6,000 communities located in more than 100 countries throughout the world.

JCI members are 18- to 40-year-old professionals and entrepreneurs who have joined a local JCI chapter. We meet, learn and grow. We create positive change. We train to become better leaders. We organize projects in the areas of Business, Individual, Community, and International Development.

Building local, national and international networks, we draw on the experience of JCI alumni who have succeeded in various facets of life and who provide assistance when required. Representing countless occupations and skills, we are creative, bold leaders who are developing new skills, laying new foundations, and establishing new friendships and networks.

We believe in the advancement of the global community and the creation of positive change by improving ourselves and the world around us. We meet at local, national, and international events to exchange ideas and share best practices. We also learn from dynamic speakers and trainers at interesting and interactive seminars and presentations. We are growing personally and professionally because we are learning by doing, actively organizing projects and activities that benefit our communities and ourselves.
