What is Ambassador for a Day?
Ambassador for a Day exists to empower young people with the skills they need to become our future leaders. The winner of our competition will be invited to our Embassy to learn about leadership, communication and advocacy.
For everyone
Ambassador for a Day is a welcoming and safe space to share ideas, learn and to meet others. You don't need to be at school or university and you don't need to have good grades or come from an academic background. The thing that matters to us most is that you have a passion to make our societies better.
Mentoring
Winners of Ambassador for a Day will have the chance to learn from senior leaders at the British Embassy, as well as the opportunity to give and receive advice from the British Ambassador. You'll also be able to meet people from the world of Swiss & Liechtenstein politics and put your questions to them.
Leadership
You'll also take part in a number of workshops focusing on leadership and influencing skills. You'll receive media training and valuable tips on how to make your voice heard, how to create change and how to become a leader of the future.
No experience necessary
Our competition is about learning and discovering. We don't expect you to know how embassies work or what an Ambassador does. You don't need to have experience in leadership or politics - our goal is to show you that you can be part of it.
