EUROPEAN YOUNG KIWANIS SUMMIT IN LISBON
6–8 MAY 2022 | LISBON, PORTUGAL
If you are a Kiwanian under 40 and want to contribute to defining the future of Kiwanis, save the date for the European Young Kiwanis Summit.
ABOUT
The average age of Kiwanis members is 63. next year it will be 64. Kiwanis is getting older and now it is time to rejuvenate!
Due to the pandemic, our previous edition in France needed to be cancelled, but now we are here again, with a new edition in Lisbon, Portugal!
GOAL
The goal of this summit is to hear our younger members, to explore how they see the future of Kiwanis and how they plan to ensure succession and a bright future for our organization.
OBJECTIVES
- To give Young Kiwanians a forum to share how they see rejuvenation in the organisation
- To give Young Kiwanians a space to propose new initiatives for rejuvenation
- To give Young Kiwanians the opportunity to get on stage and take responsibility
- To engage and recruit young volunteers who can take responsibility at district & European levels
- To promote “younger” approaches to Kiwanis membership (new types of clubs, MeetUps,…)
- To brainstorm on new ideas about how we can grow with younger people.
WHAT IS ON THE AGENDA?
We are preparing several sessions and workshops:
- How to prepare Kiwanis for the future
- More trendy types of Kiwanis’ clubs for younger people
- Young people active in the local clubs
- MeetUps as a new club opening format with younger members
- Digital marketing of Kiwanis
- Innovative youth led social projects…
Aside from the formal sessions, we will of course also enjoy some teambuilding, a drink together, networking, and… enjoy Lisbon!
