If you are a junior in high school, a Phoenix resident, and interested in traveling to another country, you are encouraged to apply for the Phoenix Sister Cities Commission Youth Ambassador Exchange Program. Criteria for selection as a youth ambassador include self-confidence, maturity, flexibility, leadership and good communication skills. The Phoenix Sister Cities Commission pays half of the travel expenses between Phoenix and the selected sister city, while the remaining half is the responsibility of the students and their families.
Financial assistance is available for qualified students.
