The above linked application form asks 3 questions to assess your interest and intentions for becoming an Ambassador. You will be asked to respond to each of the following in 100-150 words:
1. Why are you interested in becoming and Ambassador?
2. What will you contribute to the Ambassadors team and wider Open WIN community?
3. What will you gain from being an Ambassador?
+Please note that no prior experience with open science related projects or activities is required!
+
You will then be asked to let us know about any logistical constraints you might have with participation according to our [proposed schedule](../programme#schedule).
We would like our Ambassadors to represent the full diversity of our community. We therefore ask applicants if they consider themselves to be a member of one or more historically excluded groups. We will also ask for your career stage, to ensure we get diverse representation.
