About the program

The Doha Debates Ambassador Program is back after a successful first year to empower and equip the next generation of changemakers. The program equips young people with the knowledge, tools, relationships and experiences they need to engage with diverse perspectives and bring positive, solutions-focused change to their local communities.

We believe that the crises humanity faces today require all hands on deck. Young people from all around the world need to come together and think differently from previous generations. The Doha Debates ambassadors will participate in a series of 12 innovative virtual conversations between August and November of 2022, engaging directly with global experts and community leaders to explore and wrestle with complex topics and challenging problems. The Doha Debates Ambassador Program provides this highly selective cohort with meaningful access to people already working on these issues and—just as importantly—access to each other. Together, these young leaders can learn from each other and ignite collective action.

Our second class of ambassadors comprises 42 young leaders from diverse backgrounds and from all over the world. These ambassadors, who are between the ages of 17 and 28, represent 16 countries on five continents, and they have already committed to the exploration and growth necessary to apply global knowledge to local solutions.

Congratulations to our 2022 Doha Debates ambassadors!
