Public Affairs officer Thomas Hamm
and Educational Assistant Veronica Perez-Urioste begin
to review the stack of applications received from
students wishing to become Youth Ambassadors. Five
candidates will be selected to represent Uruguay in
the United States for two weeks. They will experience
life in a U.S. high school environment, live with
American host families, exchange views on topics of
common interest with U.S. youth and serve as “Ambassadors”
in projecting a positive image of Uruguay in the contacts
with the U.S. people they meet. (See related
