The flags in the Nationwide & Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H Center are sponsored by International 4-H Youth Exchange (IFYE) Alumni and Friends of Ohio 4-H International Programs. The international flags in the A.B. Graham Great Hall represent countries which have hosted at least three Ohio International 4-H Youth Exchange (IFYE) delegates. The flags in the International Room represent all the countries that have hosted Ohio youth through 4-H exchange programs.

4-H International Program
In hopes of building cultural understanding and promoting international relations, Ohio 4-H provides opportunities for youth to travel to other countries and for families to host young people from around the world. We also have over 30 active volunteers in counties throughout Ohio who help coordinate 4-H International Programs and Special Events. In this global community, many are finding it essential to reach out, open communication, and build understanding. Participating in these programs is a great opportunity to learn about other cultures, languages, countries, and people, and to learn about your own culture as well. For more information on opportunities within 4-H International Programs, please check out the links below.
