We had a fantastic time visiting the World Federation of Youth Clubs, as well as BGC America Youth Clubs in Orlando, Florida.

Staff had the opportunity to learn and share from both organisations about the similarities and differences in their youth work practice. It was great visiting the BGC America youth clubs to see first hand the quality youth work they deliver, as well as sharing best practices. The conversations with the World Federation were really valuable, especially hearing about how they support their member clubs around the world, and sharing about their new and exciting ‘Sister Club’ program for affiliated clubs to connect and support one another.

Overall it was a great trip for the team to see quality youth work, share best practices and see how an International Opportunity works.
