From 4-H
The 4-H movement -- made up of 4-H programs delivered through Cooperative Extension at land-grant universities in the United States as well as independent 4-H programs from around the world -- is uniquely positioned to meet urgent global needs.
Young people are the drivers of change--and today there are more than one billion people between 12 and 24.
The young people of today are the farmers who will feed the world in 2050.
4-H reaches 7 million young people in more than 50 countries.
More than 3.5 million girls and young women are leading in 4-H today.
The 4-H high quality positive youth development experience is proven effective--with a 100-year history of agricultural and economic development.
A global network of independent 4-H programs is working together to offer the 4-H experience to millions more young people--with a goal to double the number of young leaders reached outside the U.S. by 2015.
