The Global Citizenship Lessons Plans:
- Can be used by any club or group regardless of project area to learn global citizenship skills and to learn about Burundi.
- Are only 15 – 30 minutes long so can be easily incorporated during a club business meeting
- Are fun and interactive
- Are for all 4-H youth from 8 – 19
- Are customizable and Include optional ideas for extension
