Intercultural Workplace Ambassadors
Become a
Workplace Intercultural Ambassador
Introduction
Movements thrive when people carry the vision as their own. An Ambassador Programme provides a structured way to multiply voices, extend influence, and sustain engagement. Think of it as planting seeds in different soils so the vision grows everywhere. Ambassadors act as bridge-builders, representing the mission in their circles, while deepening their sense of belonging and ownership.
Becoming an Intercultural Workplace Ambassador
Why Become a Workplace Ambassador?
A proposal your organisation can adopt and own
Why this matters (workplace first, ICCT second)
Your organisation already values people and community. A Workplace Ambassador helps embed cultural inclusion, connect with the city’s renewal, and show practical leadership across cultures. ICCT is not the hero; your organisation is. ICCT simply equips, learn from you and connects you with wider partners.
