Who Are JCI?

There are critical challenges in the world and young people play a significant role in addressing them – both now and in the future.

JCI Sydney is a group of young leaders, aged 18-40, from different backgrounds, cultures and professions, who want to tackle these challenges head on.

For over 100 years, JCI members around the world have acted on one shared belief – the improvement of our society and environment is paramount, not just for us but also for future generations.

Areas Of Opportunity

JCI is all about learning by doing and taking action in a safe and supported environment. We empower young leaders with the skills they need to make positive change!

JCI’s 4 areas of development opportunities – community, individual, business and international – provide our members with endless opportunities to try new things and gain new skills.

Becoming a member allows you to learn in our monthly development events, gain real experience and build skills through co-ordinating or assisting with events or projects, and network with a community of passionate, driven people!

What Projects Do You Do?

JCI members are taking action to improve our local communities. Together with our partners, JCI members deliver grassroots initiatives to advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
