CISV’s cross-cultural educational programs change people’s lives by opening young hearts and minds, and enables youth to develop self-awareness, empathy, and respect for those different from themselves. Young people from around the world participate in CISV’s international villages, camps and exchange programs that feature a range of educational and cultural activities emphasizing tolerance and cross-cultural understanding. CISV’s programs have a life-long impact on participants. Many of the young people who participated in CISV’S international programs are now leaders around the world, promoting CISV’s principles of tolerance and peace in their personal and professional lives.
