Preference will be given to young people from diverse backgrounds who can
demonstrate active involvement in governance affairs. By all accounts,
those that have made the cut in previous years have found it invaluable.

its latest *Internet Society Ambassadors to the Internet Governance Forum
<http://www.internetsociety.org/what-we-do/education-and-leadership-programmes/next-generation-leaders/igf-ambassadors-programme>*
(IGF). IGF Ambassadors will gain valuable insight and experience through
their exposure to a range of stakeholders and discussions from numerous
disciplines across the Internet ecosystem and benefit from their immersion
into the IGF week of activities.

The* Internet Governance Forum <http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/>* (IGF)
serves to bring people together from various stakeholder groups as equals,
in discussions on public policy issues relating to the Internet. While
there is no negotiated outcome, the IGF informs and inspires those with
policy-making power in both the public and private sectors.  At their
annual meeting delegates discuss, exchange information and share good
practices with each other. The IGF facilitates a common understanding of
how to maximize Internet opportunities and address risks and challenges
that arise.

Ambassadorships will be awarded through a competitive application process.
The Internet Society is currently accepting applications for the *10th
Annual Internet Governance Forum, November 9-13, 2015, João Pessoa, Brazil*.
