policy) to introduce young people from around the world (ambassadors) to the world/language of Internet Governance. The goal is to train these young
<span style="font-weight:bold">ambassadors</span> through <span style="font-weight:bold">
courses</span> and <span style="font-weight:bold">mentorship</span> to become fluent in the "lingo" of internet governance, become advocates for their communities, create content about challenges in their communities, countries, region and literally be in
the decision-making room when policies and laws are made to expand, reduce or manage the use of internet. For successful cohorts of the Ambassadors program has been held amongst other engagements within the Internet Governance space. </span><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.digitalgrassroots.org_-3Fm-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=1A9IIOkJia11FXDmJ1R4Jn7wGT4ExHiVuBF89mvNt_Q&m=lJot6GRmzUDhw9vNgoD6vYQ9jlakUsBBJ-SIrlCRdoM&s=s8UG4ICswPeGG21gCQFhUrcoh0qFDsgvwKqPups0tRY&e=" target="_blank">https://www.digitalgrassroots.org/
