About Us

The U.S. Ambassador’s Youth Council is a part of global initiative around other U.S. Embassies worldwide in which 65 Youth Councils are currently in existence. The motivated young people are collaborating to introduce impactful changes through project implementations.

The Ambassador’s Youth Council in Cambodia (AYC) was officially formed in October 2012 to cultivate young leaders from around the country, engage Cambodian youth on topics of interest to youth, and receive inputs on U.S. Embassy programs and U.S. policies in Cambodia.

Aside from this advisory role, the AYC members are also working in executing several projects and related activities aiming at raising awareness on social issues under three main themes: Education, Environment and Employment.

Since our establishment in 2012, there has been a total of 119 members in the council.
