In 2027, Ohio 4-H teens will have the opportunity to participate in two unique Global Immersion Projects:
Greece at the American Farm School in Thessaloniki, where participants will explore agricultural innovation, food production, leadership development, Greek culture, and iconic destinations like Meteora and the Mount Olympus region.
Austria at the LFS Pyhra Agricultural High School, where youth will work alongside Austrian students, explore agriculture and food systems, visit Vienna, hike in the Alps, and gain real-world international experience.
These experiences are designed for Ohio 4-H members who are curious about the world, passionate about agriculture, and ready to develop their leadership skills.
To apply, youth must first receive a nomination from an Ohio 4-H Professional. Then applications are sent directly to those nominated.
Nomination deadline: September 30
Interested Ohio 4-H members should contact their county 4-H Professional at their local Extension office to learn more about the nomination and selection process.
More information about these and all 2027 Global and Cultural Immersion experiences can be found on the Ohio 4-H Youth Development Cultural Immersion webpage: https://ohio4h.org/families/just-teens/cultural-immersion-projects
