Nominate a DAAD Young Ambassador-Applications Due May 19

The 2013/14 academic year isn't far down the road. Looking for an innovative
way to inform and advise new student groups about opportunities for study in
Germany? This is a great program for helping returning study abroad students
from Germany put their newly found knowledge and experience to good use.
Nominate a DAAD Young Ambassador on your campus! 

DAAD is excited to announce the latest call for applications for its Young
Ambassadors Program. DAAD Young Ambassadors are undergraduate students from
North America who have recently studied (or completed research or an
internship such as RISE) in Germany and are interested in promoting study in
Germany at their home institutions. DAAD has 20 spots available for students
from all over the US and Canada to help demonstrate to their peers what
makes Germany such a unique and attractive destination for study abroad.

DAAD Young Ambassadors are responsible for organizing at least one event per
semester on their campuses to promote study in Germany. Additionally, they
will collaborate with their universities' study abroad offices and other
German institutions in their areas to inform their fellow students on
educational and research opportunities in Germany. There are short profiles
of the Young Ambassadors on the DAAD website, and they are available for
email inquiries about their respective German host universities, study
abroad programs or about life as a student in Germany as general.

Applications must be received by May 19, 2013.

Although students may apply directly to DAAD to become a Young Ambassador,
special preference will be given to candidates nominated by their
university's study abroad office. (Only one student should be nominated per
college or university.)

Complete program information, including application and nomination forms, is
available at www.daad.org/ambassadors

Youth HotSpots in Germany Website and App

Germany has become an increasingly popular destination for young adults over
the past few years. That is why the worldwide sales and marketing activities
of the German National Tourist Board (GNTB) are focusing on youth travel in
2013.

 
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001qvfE9R764daUDQ1OD3l1yFA0-4Lx64DbFDRp5GYrkHA0

vtqfksluzLuhoShYahGCfMCG6xt7Ug==> 

The core elements of the campaign are a mobile app and a new microsite. As
most young adults now take their smartphones with them when travelling or on
holiday, the GNTB has brought out a Youth HotSpot mobile app as part of the
campaign. The app is available free of charge from the App Store and on
Google Play. It provides young international travellers with an overview of
1,300 open-access Wi-Fi hotspots in Germany, enabling them to access social
networks for free.

The original HotSpots were selected on the basis of surveys of young
Germans. Users will be able to update the map with their own HotSpots and
share them with their friends on Facebook and other social media. In doing
so, they will be creating user-generated content for the microsite and
thereby becoming part of the campaign themselves.

To find out more about the microsite and the app, please visit:
