Today’s YOUTH will inherit a climate-changed planet…

Are they ready for it? At Azraq, we are acutely aware that it is the actions that we take today, which will impact the youth of tomorrow. Given this, we have decided to place youth at the forefront of our decision making; giving them a seat at the table and a voice when it comes to making decisions on behalf of Azraq’s operations.

The Ocean Youth Ambassador role is for people aged between 10 and 18 years residing in the United Arab Emirates who are passionate about the oceans and in making positive sustainable changes in their community. They must demonstrate good communication skills and must be passionate about solving today’s most pressing problems while working to engage their fellow peers in this important agenda.

Azraq’s Ocean Youth Ambassadors will learn to":

  • become actors of change for the oceans

  • design and develop communication campaigns around ocean issues

  • reach out and engage local communities

  • maximise the impact of Azraq’s activities through content (ie: articles, videos. blogs etc)

  • know the skills it takes to be a sustainability leader that makes a difference

  • lead by example

Azraq’s Ocean Youth Ambassadors will:

  • be coached by an Azraq member

  • assist to develop campaigns and actions addressing the sustainable challenges faced by the ocean

  • engage with schools to contribute to building a generation that makes a difference

  • have the opportunity to present your work at major events.
