The British Embassy in Amman is launching its second competition to give young women in Jordan the chance to experience diplomatic work first hand and join a network of female leaders to advocate for gender equality and social inclusion in Jordan. The 'Ambassador for a Day' competition honours the UN's International Day for Women in Diplomacy, which was observed on June 24.
This initiative provides an exciting opportunity for young women to experience diplomatic and advocacy work for equality and change, while gaining leadership skills.
Women aged 18 to 25 years old, resident in Jordan are eligible to apply. The competition is open until 18 August 2024. The winners will 'shadow' the British Ambassador, Deputy Ambassador and the embassy's fantastic female leadership team for a day.
The winners of the "Ambassador for a Day" competition will have the opportunity to participate in exclusive events hosted by the British Embassy. They will meet senior representatives from the embassy, engage with their stakeholders and partners in Jordan.
