Youth Exchange program

National and international youth exchange programs brings the ideal of global citizenship to life. these programs give young people the opportunity to experience life in other cultures and gain new understanding of the world through travel abroad. As a youth organization we believe that youth should have more space to discover the world and understand the multi-cultural values and norms. LYON has organized lot of national and international youth exchange progams and planning to initiates more youth programs for the future.

At that time Prof. Siri Hettige was the pronoun person who had pointed out the important of the national youth policy in Sri Lanka. He had done National youth survey in 2009. With the collaboration of the Dr. Sagara Chandarasekara , Lyon  convinced  National youth Service Council  to organized a platform to discuss the National Youth policy of Sri lanka. Lyon played the Facilitator role for these initial discussions.

Main Objective of the youth exchange program to create national and international youth to broaden their outlook by learning to live with and meet people of different cultures, creeds, and colors and by having to cope with day-to-day problems in an environment completely different from the one they have experienced at home.
