We are excited to announce the launch of the KoboToolbox Ambassadors Program! As part of our mission to make high quality data more accessible, this program aims to strengthen the support network for KoboToolbox users by building local user communities.

Our KoboToolbox Ambassadors will play a crucial role in driving local engagement and building a support system for organizations, researchers, and humanitarians using data to respond to the most pressing challenges in our world today.

About the KoboToolbox Ambassadors Program

Ambassadors will participate in the growth of the KoboToolbox community, support local organizations to access KoboToolbox, and help users advance their skills in using KoboToolbox. To achieve these goals, the role of Ambassadors will be to:

  • Support community building
  • Help local organizations
  • Share user impact stories
  • Participate in the Community Forum
  • Contribute to KoboToolbox trainings

As a volunteer KoboToolbox Ambassador, you will benefit from exclusive resources and support to help you strengthen your skills and execute your role, including training and skill development, professional and career development, as well as opportunities for networking. Ambassadors will also have the opportunity to influence the KoboToolbox roadmap and make a meaningful contribution to data-driven social impact.

Who should apply?

We are looking for individuals with advanced knowledge of the KoboToolbox platform and data collection. Individuals with community-building and training expertise are also encouraged to apply.

How to get involved

Applications are now closed. We will open the program for new applicants again and will announce a new call for potential ambassadors in the near future!

Join the effort for inclusive data collection

This is an example of the work we do and the impact we enable. We believe high quality data collection tools can change the lives of millions for better, and we work hard to make that possible.

But we can’t do it alone.

Help us to continue making high quality data collection tools accessible to everyone—especially under-resourced organizations. Support our work—and their impact—with a donation amount of your choice.
