The Young World Summits are not just inspirational gatherings; they serve as pivotal starting points for transformative change. After attending a summit, all delegates are designated as One Young World Ambassadors, a title that carries significant weight and responsibility.
These ambassadors are tasked with the important mission of enacting positive change within their nations, communities, and organizations, applying the knowledge and connections they’ve gained during the summit.
Since the first summit in 2010, the collective efforts of over 18,700 young leaders from this expansive global network have made a measurable impact, influencing the lives of more than 50.42 million individuals around the world.
This remarkable achievement underscores the potential of youth-led initiatives and the vital role of these ambassadors in driving social progress.
To maintain a strong sense of community and ensure effective collaboration among the ambassadors, the dedicated One Young World staff based in London works closely with Coordinating Ambassadors.
These Coordinating Ambassadors play a crucial role in fostering connections, sharing resources, and mobilizing the wider network of ambassadors.
