Global Ambassador Program

The Global Ambassador Program, part of the Young Leaders Program, aims to empower a diverse network of alumni young leaders committed to advocating for MCW Global’s mission and impact.

About the Program

What is it?

The Global Ambassador Program aims to strengthen the dynamic global alumni network co-created and led by MCW alumni. The Ambassadors, who will be holding a volunteering role, will serve as representatives of MCW Global on a global scale, undertaking initiatives that raise awareness about the organization’s mission and impact.

By leveraging the alumni network’s talent, dedication, and global reach, this program seeks to achieve the following:

  • To actively involve alumni in facilitating local initiatives, joining, organizing, and participating in actions, creating a stronger sense of community, and rekindling connections with MCW Global.
