 Almost all members of Junior Chamber are involved in some business activity, whether on their own, working for another company, or maybe aspiring to open their own business.
One of the objectives of Junior Chamber when it was established in 1915, was to give young people an active voice in the business community.
Today this purpose is still alive. In the Business Area of Opportunity, members can exchange business ideas and
do business with other interested members, not only in their own chapter or country but also with a network of almost 400,000 members around the world.
Business Opportunities also give Junior Chamber the chance to enhance the economics of the community by conducting projects to increase the productivity and effectiveness of businesses. Projects contributing to this goal are visits to successful companies to learn how they operate, having successful entrepreneurs speak at monthly meetings, and conducting training sessions on how to enhance one’s company or work. |

The Community Area of Opportunity
( 25 items )
 The Community Area of opportunity gives the member a chance to work with and for his or her community.
The member surveys the needs of the community and organizes projects to satisfy those needs. The opportunity to meet important members of the community and the general public is always there. However, the most valuable opportunity of this Area is to make a concrete contribution to one's environment and fellowman. In this key arena, not only can members be of great benefit to their community but they also have the ideal workshop for putting into practice the skills they have been developing in their individual and management courses
Junior Chamber adopted and supports the Declaration of the Rights of the Child, and, whenever possible, chapters conduct projects to help children.

The International Area of Opportunity
( 21 items )
 The opportunities in the International Area of Junior Chamber are very impressive. Via this Area, members of our organization can derive an awareness of what is happening in other parts of the world. The International Area allows for direct experiences with different customs and cultures, at the same time helping members to understand their fellow human beings all over the world.
The International Area also contributes to world peace by creating friendships that cross many boundaries and borders. Junior Chamber International has cooperation agreements with a variety of nongovernmental organizations such as UNICEF, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), The United Nations, the International Association of Students in Economics and Management (AIESEC), and others.
The Chapter Twinning program is an excellent opportunity for members to exchange ideas, projects, visits, etc., with other chapters around the world.
