Feature Story:
Introducing URI’s Inaugural Youth Ambassadors In recognition of the great gifts our young leaders have to offer to the
rest of the URI community and to share with the world, we are proud to announce the launch of our Inaugural Youth Ambassadors
Program in 2010!
In this pilot year, our Youth Ambassadors will be initiating projects of interfaith cooperation and service-learning of their design, learning from each other and from their peer mentors through online exchange, participating in regional leadership trainings, and sharing their views and experiences through website blogs with the URI community and broader public.
Through a selection process, in which more than 50 youth ages 18-30 across the globe applied, we selected fifteen finalists for their clear vision of what interfaith cooperation could bring to their community, for their engagement in an area of work or an area of the world that represents new growth for URI and for interfaith solidarity, and for their demonstrated dedication to working to end religiously motivated violence and to createcultures of peace, justice and healing for the Earth and all living beings.
For a brief introduction to each of our Ambassadors, please see our site.
