The Youth Ambassador Programme supports young changemakers to create and build upon social impact projects addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Through online workshops and discussions, opportunities for mentorship and ongoing engagement in the Programme's MOOC and closed Discord channel, Youth Ambassadors learn, ideate and collaborate to make a positive impact in their communities while addressing global questions. In addition to providing support to these young changemakers, this programme builds a supportive, kind, inspiring and safe online community of young people aged 13 - 19.

You can find some frequently asked questions about the Youth Ambassador Programme and their answers.
Q: What do Youth Ambassadors say about the Programme?
Have a look at this newsletter created by Youth Ambassadors from 2026 to hear directly from them and to know what to expect!
Q: Is there a fee for the programme?
No, there isn’t a fee for the programme. This programme is entirely free of charge.
Q: Can I apply on behalf of someone else?
Every applicant has to submit their own application through their own HundrED profile. In order to apply, applicants need to create a HundrED account. Every application is saved in the account of the applicant.
Q: What language is the programme held in?
The programme is held in English - the online sessions, conversations and most resources will be in English, so it is important that you are able to communicate in it. If you have accessibility needs, for example, if you are non-verbal, you can also participate.
Q: Is there any travel involved?
No, there is no travel involved. The programme is entirely online. The platforms where we will connect are Discord and the Youth Ambassador's Programme MOOC, where we will have an online forum and will be able to chat anytime.
Q: What do I need in order to participate?
This programme is held online, so you will need access to a mobile device and internet. The online conversations are held on Discord*, so you will be required to create an account.
*Youth Ambassadors who are in countries that prohibit access to Discord can still engage on the HundrED MOOC platform, Zoom calls, and will receive weekly email updates.
Q: How much time do I need to commit to the programme?
There is no compulsory amount of time that we request Youth Ambassadors to dedicate to the programme, but in order to get the most out of it, we encourage Youth Ambassadors to use around 1 hour weekly during the three months of the programme to connect with others, attend some online sessions or participate in workshops with inspirational speakers (which will be also recorded, so it will be possible to watch them later). In addition to that, those who are working on their own social impact project would dedicate time according to their own availability and interest.
Q: How will I attend the online meetings, if we are all in different time zones?
Since we have youth ambassadors all over the world, some online activities will be organised in the morning and some in the afternoon (EET, UTC +2), so that it's possible for Youth Ambassadors to participate in either one of them. In addition to this, there are sessions and workshops at different times during the week. Many resources and materials are pre-recorded, so that everyone can look into them at their own pace.
Q: When does the programme take place?
The next cohort dates will be shared when they are available.
Q: In what language will the programme be held?
The programme will be held in English.
Q: What are the main goals of the programme?
The main goal of the programme is to provide a space for youth to use your voice in order to create change. You will be doing this by connecting with inspirational young people around the world, by learning about the SDGs and by getting the skills to create your own social impact project.
Q: What will I get at the end of the programme?
Youth Ambassadors will receive a Certificate of Completion, in addition to countless connections to young people all over the world ✨.
