Georgia looks for young ambassadors to enhance foreign ties

The International Education Centre (IEC) of Georgia is launching a new program for young Georgian Ambassadors to enhance relations with foreign partners.

The IEC, a Government-initiated entity that supported quality education abroad, developed a new program for Georgian IEC scholarship recipients learning abroad to represent their home nation during the year they carry out their overseas education.

If selected, the young Ambassadors major task would be to raise awareness of Georgia by hosting fun activities, teach students about Georgia’s unique history and culture and encourage interest in Georgia’s economic, sporting, youth issues and more.

The main task of the Ambassadors will be carrying out cultural, educational and sporting events that popularise Georgia. They will also establish Georgia’s Foreign Friends clubs,” the IEC said in a statement.

Young Georgian leaders interested in applying for the Youth Ambassador position are invited to apply to the ISC from November 10 to 23 on the webpage.

The IEC was established in 2014 through the initiative of Georgia’s Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili.
