Global Ambassadors Program – Cleveland Council on World Affairs

The Global Ambassadors program is a transformative year-long global leadership program for emerging leaders in Northeast Ohio that explores opportunities and challenges for global cities. This is a competitive program that is designed to transform leading mid-career professionals into international ambassadors for Northeast Ohio.

Global Ambassadors will participate in CCWA’s LEADS global leadership program (see above). In addition, participants will participate in a series of dedicated roundtables focused on economic development, sustainability, and community building. The program culminates in an international study tour to Finland and Spain. Learn more about this program here: 2024 Global Ambassadors Flyer.
