YOUTH EXCHANGE The Lions International Youth Exchange Program was established in 1961 to give youth an opportunity to travel to exciting international destinations for up to 6 weeks. Whilst overseas, the youth live with one or more families associated with Lions International to experience first-hand a new culture, lifestyle and customs. Unlike some exchange programs, the Lions Youth Exchange Program does not involve tourism, academic studies or employment. The aim of the program is to create and foster a spirit of understanding among the peoples of the world. The Lions Youth Exchange Program caters for both inbound and outbound youth exchanges. Incoming International youth from Europe, North America, New Zealand, South America, Scandinavia, UK, Malaysia, Indonesia and Japan, arriving in Australia in July-August and December-January. As well as living with one or more Australian families, many visiting exchangees attend an Australian Youth Camp, which provides an opportunity to meet young people from other countries in a fun, camp environment. Outgoing Australian youth travel overseas in December – January to live with families associated with Lions International in various countries. Lions chaperones are provided at stopovers in London and Los Angeles, and on the return flights to Australia. To be eligible to participate in this program, Outgoing Australian Youth need to: - fund the cost of their Youth Exchange travel ranging from $A1,500 – $A6,000 depending on destination; - be interviewed by a Lions, Lioness or Leo Club located near the youth’s home town to determine their suitability for the program; - be ready to represent their community, country and their sponsoring Lions club as a youth ambassador and give verbal presentations on Australia, it’s culture and their sponsoring Lions Club in Australia; - be willing to explore and accept the customs of the host culture and host families; - have a basic knowledge of the language of the host country, if necessary; and - accept that the Lions Youth Exchange Program is a culture exchange and not another form of tourism.

U Lions razmjenu mladih u Hrvatsku stiglo dvoje mladih Japanaca U Lions razmjenu mladih u Hrvatsku stiglo dvoje mladih Japanaca U Hrvatsku je jučer kasno navečer stiglo dvoje mladih Japanaca preko programa Lions razmjene mladih. Djevojka Kana Ota iz perfekture Miyagi sa sjevera Japana i dečko Rimpei Suzuki iz Tokija. Na aerodromu su im veseli doček priredili obitelji Hršak i Petek, te Barbara i Roža Milčić ispred Povjerenstva za razmjenu mladih. Predstavnice povjerenstva su im zaželjele dobrodošlicu i predale poklone u ime Lionsa Hrvatske. Mladi Japanci će kroz dvadesetak dana boravka u obiteljima u Zagrebu i Samoboru upoznati način života hrvatskih obitelji i naše običaje. Želimo im ugodan boravak za koji se od srca zahvaljujemo obiteljima Hršak, Petek, Malnar i Mucko. Obiteljima želimo da zajedno sa svojim mladim gostima uživaju u zajedničkom druženju i dijeljenju običaja i načina života. Zahvaljujemo Lions klubovima: Samobor, Grič i Kontesa Nera koji su se uključili u zimsku razmjenu. Tijekom svog boravka mladi gosti će se upoznati i sa aktivnostima Hrvatskih Lionsa i biti angažirani kao pomoćnici Djeda Božićnjaka iz dalekog Japana u akciji "1200 ruku 1200 poklona" za djecu slabog socijalnog statusa u organizaciji Lions kluba Kontesa Nera, Leo Kluba Tri Kule Zagreb i Crvenog Križa. Za vrijeme boravka gostiju iz Japana u Hrvatskoj mlada Petra Pranjić iz Zagreba otkriva kulturu i način života dalekog Japanu. Nestrpljivo čekamo Petrine dojmove. Zajedno kroz razmjenu slijedimo treći cilj lionizma i programa Lions razmjene mladih: "Stvoriti i njegovati duh razumijevanja među narodima svijeta!"
