Young UK Ambassador

The Young UK Ambassadors is a partnership project between SYP, British Youth Council, UK Youth Parliament, Northern Ireland Youth Forum and Funky Dragon. We believe that young people from all four nations working together is the only way to make sure that the voices of UK young people are represented on a range of global issues.

We are looking for inspiring, passionate young people to represent the UK and take the views of young people to global decision-makers and forums.

If you are:
• An MSYP aged 16-25
• Able to attend one of our recruitment day in Edinburgh on the 26th or 27th February 2010
• Able to participate in a residential induction weekend from 26th-28th March 2010
• Able to commit to the project for 1 year
• Interested in global decision-making
• Willing to develop and share your skills and experience
If you answered yes to all of the above then you could be one of the Young UK Ambassadors for 2010!
