About us
Who we are
JCI is a global, not-for-profit organisation for 18 to 40-year-olds, run by its members for its members. JCI’s mission is to provide development opportunities that empower young people to create positive change. JCI members are from many different backgrounds, cultures and professions, but all share common values and passion to develop themselves and support and improve their communities.
Through workshops, projects and organisational boards, members are able to gain practical experience not always available in their work environments. They can develop new skills outside their usual day-to-day experience, take on leadership positions years ahead of when they might be offered in the workplace and learn from people with different personalities, perspectives, and experiences. JCI events offer an open and supportive environment, where members are encouraged to step out of their comfort zones, experiment and learn by doing.
