WAVE call for youth ambassadors 2020

We are looking for the 2nd generation of WAVE Youth Ambassadors.

Since October 2018, the WAVE Youth Ambassadors support the Step Up! Campaign in mobilizing and encouraging young people to raise awareness of the human rights violation that is violence against women and girls.

Do you want to be part of a conscious, open-minded and critical peer group who is passionate about women’s rights, empowerment of women and girls, and feminism?

We want you to become our youth ambassador!

The WAVE Network is looking for young and committed activists and invites them to become the 2nd generation of youth ambassadors for the WAVE Step Up! Campaign. The Step Up! Campaign is a Europe-wide project of the WAVE Network, aiming at increasing efforts to stop violence against women, raising awareness of the issue, and protecting survivors of violence against women and girls.

The group will consist of up to 10 young people from the participating campaigning countries.*

You are:

• 18 – 27 years old and have a good command of the English language;
• aware of the issue of violence against women and girls and its prevalence;
• willing to actively engage, as a volunteer, with a group of your peers from all over Europe for the next 2 years,
• willing to develop new skills and gain experience in the field of women’s rights,
• willing to create engaging content and help us spread important messages among young people.

We are offering you a unique experience to continue to strengthen the platform created by the 1st generation of ambassadors and to turn the Step Up! Campaign into a movement and a support system for other young people across Europe.

The call is open from 6th March to 20th April 2020.
