The JCI Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the World, usually JCI TOYP, program serves to formally recognize young people who excel in their chosen fields and exemplify the best attributes of the world's young people. The program is sponsored by Junior Chamber International (JCI). JCI selects 10 outstanding young people under 40 who live the JCI Mission in extraordinary ways.
It was founded by the 1983 JCI World President Kjell Peterson and first introduced at the 1983 JCI World Congress in Taipei.
