SOONPRIORITYInternational
What it is: Student Ambassadors bring Technovation to their own schools and communities — recruiting girls, forming teams, running workshops, and connecting students to mentors. In many regions, they are the program.
Last season's impact: 85 Student Ambassadors completed the full season across every region Technovation serves — including one in Egypt who supported 533 girls and 57 teams and built a participant-tracking system and mentor-matching network; one in Kazakhstan who reached 400 girls despite limited devices and no local mentors; one in Uzbekistan who supported 220 girls and translated program materials into her own language; and one in Canada who formed 15 new teams and founded a permanent Technovation Club at her high school.
In their words: “Seeing someone go from ‘I don’t know if I can do this’ to ‘This is our solution, and we believe in it.’”
Know someone? If you know a student who wants to build something real in their community, send them our way.
