4-H International Programs

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.
