Matt's Youth Advisers

Objectives

British Embassy Prague is starting a new programme to engage with young people across the Czech Republic, to hear their voices, and to help them develop as leaders and role models. Participants will form a diverse group of 8-10 that will work directly with the UK Ambassador through regular online meetings over a ten month period (February - December 2024).

Who can apply

The competition is open to residents of the Czech Republic who are aged 18 to 26 and are able to communicate in both English and Czech.

The primary requirement is to have energy and ideas. No links with the UK are required but participants will need to be available over the entire duration of the programme, and to be confident to follow a discussion in English. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, occupations and fields of study.

How to participate

Answer the following two questions (in English, maximum 300 words per answer):

  1. How do you as an individual make a difference to your community, country or the world at large? List examples of your activities, initiatives, projects, organizations that you have been involved with. Additional links or online materials are most welcome.
  2. Name a single pressing issue, question or a challenge that young people are facing in the Czech Republic, and propose a potential solution for it.
