Overview The 2016 JCI World Congress in Québec, Canada offered delegates the opportunity to learn new skills, share best practices and harness a renewed passion for JCI as a global organization. Hosted through collaboration between JCI Québec City, Canada and JCI, the event featured workshops, skills development trainings, forums and special keynotes, which included KPMG Ambassador and Double Olympic Champion Alexandre Bilodeau, UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova, Andrew and Geoff Molson of Molson Coors Brewing Company, President and CEO of Québec International Carl Viel and Canadian Astronaut Chris Hadfield.

Delegates seized the opportunity to learn more about what role businesses have in advancing the Global Goals for Sustainable Development during the Making Global Goals Local Business forum. Members also had the opportunity to learn more about how to get involved in the Global Youth Empowerment Fund, which financially empowers youth-led organizations to advance the Global Goals in their communities worldwide.

At the Problem Solving for Peace workshop, active citizens explored concrete actions aligned with the JCI Active Citizen Framework that individuals can take to mobilize young people toward the establishment of peaceful, inclusive and just societies. Eight former JCI Presidents gathered at the Meet the JCI Presidents Forum to provide delegates with the unique opportunity to sit with, hear from and discuss JCI’s legacy and how they served as leaders to the organization.

The JCI Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the World (JCI TOYP) Honorees shared their stories and inspired delegates during the JCI TOYP Workshop: Collaborating for Impact, moderated by JCI Ambassador John Loughton. These extraordinary individuals were recognized for their incredible achievements in creating sustainable impact in their communities and across the globe during the 2016 JCI Awards Ceremony featuring the JCI TOYP Honorees.

The event also provided a platform for collaboration. JCI and the Let’s Do It! Foundation formally signed a Memorandum of Understanding, launching a partnership to activate individuals worldwide to lead a global clean-up day.

The 2016 JCI Board of Directors along with 2016 JCI National Presidents and Chief Delegates conducted the official business of the World Congress at the General Assembly.

Business included official reports from the year about finance, partnerships, 2017 and 2018 JCI Events, constitutional amendments, JCI Foundation donations, a membership dues increase and the election of the 2017 JCI Board of Directors. Historically, the JCI General Assembly voted to increase annual membership dues from US $10.50 to US $13.00, effective 2018. After the 2017 JCI Vice President, Executive Vice President and President Candidates Presentations and Caucuses throughout the week, JCI National Presidents voted on the 2017 JCI Board of Directors and 2017 JCI President. 2014 JCI Executive Vice President Dawn Hetzel of JCI USA was voted and sworn in as 2017 JCI President.

President Elect Hetzel’s term as JCI President officially begins January 1, 2017. She will serve as the global leader of the organization and plans to work with members to Build a Better Future for JCI on its path to sustainable global impact.
