Phases
The application process to become a TFF Ambassador is simple and straightforward, consisting of two phases:
- Phase 1: Ambassador Interest Online Form: The first step of the process is to fill out the admissions Ambassador application online form, which requires 15 minutes of your time:
- Submit your application here before the deadline.
- A select group of applicants will be invited to Phase 2 of the application process.
- Phase 2: Global TFF Ambassador Takeover: As part of the recruitment process, pre-selected applicants will participate in the Global TFF Ambassador Takeover and Indexing. Use this to show them your fire and why you are the TFF Ambassador they are looking for. Together, they will spice up social media and increase awareness around the food systems. Every candidate will have the opportunity to run an offline, online, or hybrid action and/or activity to showcase their creativity, commitment, and most importantly, passion for TFF’s mission. These activities will occur during the first 2 weeks of February 2022:
- Candidates will receive a TFF Guide that clearly outlines the goals for the “Global TFF Takeover and Indexing” and provides inspiration and ideas – already curious about this step? Check out Utsav’s episode on “Boots on the Ground”, an IGTV series by TFF where TFFers show you around their restaurant, farms, and other food-ag places worth visiting!
- Candidates will have approximately two weeks during mid-February to plan and execute their activity. This includes posting and tagging TFF on social media – feel free to post on the Discord server as well. They would love that!
- TFF will take approximately two weeks to review the applications and notify the selected candidates by the end of February.
