A Junior Branch (JB) is a group of young local members, typically aged 11-25, who are developing intercultural skills, such as awareness in international matters, global environment and social sensitivity, through educational and social activities consistent with ClSV's goals. These young people act as a link between other ClSV programs and activities, and often work together with like-minded organizations. They organize their own programs on a wide variety of themes such as racial equality or environmental issues. Although they constitute an integral part of the Chapter, juniors are encouraged to assume administrative responsibility and to be self-governing. International Junior Representatives, elected at the annual International JB Conference inform, coordinate and support all Junior Branches electronically, enabling them, if they so wish, to focus their activities around themes decided at Regional or International JB Conferences.
