Our Youth Ambassadors
The Shona Project is for girls, by girls and about girls. In order to make sure we always have the best interests of our girls at heart, we established our Youth Council, a group of young Irish women from all over Ireland, and with a range of different backgrounds and interests.
Our youth council help us make all our decisions, tell us when we’re doing things right and break it to us gently when we’re missing something special. They are our ambassadors and our eyes and ears on the ground. If you would like to apply to join this group of brilliant young ladies, get in touch. The more the merrier.
Lets meet the crew….
Junior Ambassadors
Our Junior Ambassadors (Jambos) are leading the way, spreading the Shona message of kindness and positivity in schools across Ireland. In additon to their important work in schools, our Jambos have attended monthly meetings, created social media posts, spoken in front of Members of the European Parliament, been on national radio, and sent petitions for curriculum reform in relation to gynaecological health.
Senior Ambassadors
Our Senior Ambassadors (Sambos) are an incredibly important part of our organisation. Some of them have been with us since day one and all of them believe in the Shona mission for girls in Ireland. Many of our Sambos also do advocacy work on everything from LGBTQ+ rights to mental health, anti-stalking legislation, road safety and climate action. They are total bosses!
If you would like to join our youth council, just email us at info@shona.ie and tell us a bit about yourself. Unfortunately, you must be over 18 to apply.
