2026 AOH Young Ambassador Program
Young Ambassadors visit St. Patrick’s Grave
The Young Ambassador Program is organized through the Friends of Saint Patrick and the Saint Patrick Centre in Downpatrick, County Down. We are excited to continue our partnership with the Ancient Order of Hibernians and the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians in America. The Young Ambassadors Program is designed to promote a greater understanding of the shared cultural heritage of Northern Ireland in North America amongst those aged 19-25. Based on the application on this website and following an interview process, Young Ambassadors will be selected to travel to Northern Ireland to explore various aspects of the history and traditions of the island of Ireland and develop their own chosen cultural dissertations. They will complete their agreed dissertations when they go home and following a successful review will be formally made Young Ambassadors.
