The Program

What is the Doha Debates Ambassador Program?

The Doha Debates Ambassador Program is a first-of-its-kind series of 12 innovative conversations guided by master facilitators and will take place online from August to November of 2022. This year’s ambassadors will engage directly with international experts on peace and conflict resolution, community changemakers from around the world and most critically, each other, learning how to facilitate productive conversations about the most intractable global issues of our times. This program brings voices from the margins to the center using systems thinking, consensus building and storytelling to deeply explore complex issues, seeking sustainable solutions that serve all.

The Doha Debates ambassadors are a highly selective cohort of 30 – 40 young leaders from diverse backgrounds and from all over the world, all committed to the exploration and growth necessary to lean into challenging conversations about complex global issues, seek common ground and build consensus for positive social change. The program equips ambassadors with the skills to:

facilitate dialogue around complex global issues,

effectively navigate intercultural communication, 

articulate and understand your own worldview and those of others,

effectively tell your own story to draw people to an issue,

use  storytelling to develop connection between people and the issues we face, and

understand the people and the motivations behind their position.

Doha Debates unites, empowers, and inspires young people to become impassioned, informed leaders. We are inspired by Majlis-style debates, which are designed to bridge differences, build consensus and identify solutions to urgent global issues. Through live debates and shows, podcasts, videos, educational curriculum, newsletters, and other written work, social media initiatives, and more, we amplify diverse perspectives and practical solutions to humanity’s challenges. Over the past several years, Doha Debates’ solutions-focused programs have reached hundreds of millions of people in 233 nations and territories.
