YOUTH AMBASSADORS

Be a Stahili Ambassador

Stahili ambassadors are a network of young and motivated volunteers who advocate for children’s rights in their communities and schools. Our network of ambassadors is made up of students across four continents and in 16 countries who are committed to sharing our message about the harms of orphanages, the importance of family, and the power of donating time and money responsibly.

Ambassadors in the field

Ambassadors are on the frontline to end orphanage voluntourism. Youth ambassadors give presentations and workshops and meet with teachers and school administrators to highlight the problem of orphanages, spreading the word about Stahili’s work, and explaining how we can all play our part in helping children return to families.

European Youth Parliament

Stahili Ambassadors forged a productive cooperation with National Committees of the European Youth Parliament (EYP). At a landmark session in Norway, 300 EYP delegates passed a resolution by an overwhelming majority to end the institutionalisation of children. Further discussions on topics such as alternative care, voluntourism and deinstitutionalisation of children have taken place at EYP events in Armenia, Finland, Norway and Turkey. We were pleased to welcome many young advocates from EYP to Stahili as Youth Ambassadors.
