About our Coordinating Ambassadors
One Young World Summits are fantastic, inspiring events, but it is after each Summit that the hard work really begins. After attending a Summit, all Delegates become One Young World Ambassadors, tasked with creating an impact in their countries, communities and organisations. This global community boasts 13,700+ young leaders who have positively impacted 30.4+ million people with their initiatives since 2010.
Coordinating Ambassadors are the glue that holds the community together and the linchpin between the One Young World team based in London and the thousands of Ambassadors worldwide.
