When People Find Purpose, They Rise
We believe that every person has potential. Every life has value. But no one makes it alone. At NextGen Ambassadors, we walk alongside youth and adults and support them take the next step toward their dreams through education, employment, and community.

Our Vision
We envision a future where every person can discover their purpose, realize their full potential, and give back to their community. A society where every person, no matter their background or past struggles, is given a fair chance to succeed.
At NGA, we strengthen skills, build confidence, and inspire personal growth by opening doors to education, work, and community. With lived experience at the core of our model, we don’t define people by their struggles or mistakes. We see strengths, interests, dreams, and the value every individual brings. Here, everyone is welcome and everything is possible.
Three Pathways for Change
Our participants bring with them a rich variety of experiences and backgrounds. Some are seeking new challenges, others want to grow their skills, expand their network, or make a positive change. No matter where you’re starting from, you are welcome here. We believe in your potential, and we’ll take that first step together with you.
Become a Mentor
Do you have a skill, passion, or knowledge you’d be willing to share with someone eager to learn? Mentoring with NGA is about opening doors through what you know, whether it’s a profession, hobby, or area of expertise. You’ll guide someone toward their goals and see your skills make a real difference. And along the way, you’ll find meaning in being part of someone’s story.
Partner With Us
We collaborate with forward-thinking partners to create jobs, build skills, and reduce exclusion. We open doors for our participants for education and work, while helping our partners meet workforce needs, strengthen community engagement, and achieve their sustainability goals.

My name is Rune Todnem By, and I support NGA
"I feel honoured to support their important work for inclusion in the workforce in my own little way. Being a sought-after speaker and facilitator on topics of leadership and organisational change, I ask clients to make a direct donation to NGA rather than paying me a speaking fee. Not all organisations can do this, but those who can all appreciate this approach, and the value it brings to society. A direct donation to NGA brings much greater value than paying me a speaking fee."
-Rune Todnem By, PhD is professor of leadership at University of Stavanger (UiS), UNESCO Chair on Leadership, Innovation and Anticipation
