To mark International Women’s Day, the Embassies of the United Kingdom, Canada and Jordan are collaborating on the ‘Ambassador for a Day’ (AFAD) competition for the third year.

Ambassador for a Day is a national essay competition for girls between 15-18 years of age. Each AFAD winner will get to shadow an Ambassador or senior UN Official in Lebanon for one day, to see first-hand how girls can become leaders and advocates for change. This promises to be an unforgettable opportunity to build skills in diplomacy, confidence, and leadership.
