The General Meeting of the "Lisbon Ambassadors" was held one month before World Youth Day, a project organised by the Lisbon City Council  
 
From August 1st to 6th, 300 youths will be spread across the city of Lisbon to guide and help the thousands of pilgrims, participants and visitors during World Youth Day.  
 
Spread across the main zones of Lisbon, including its outskirts and main transport hubs of the capital, the "Lisbon Ambassadors" will be identified with a t-shirt, a backpack and a flag.  
 
“We are going to make history in Lisbon, and you are going to be the Ambassadors of that history" emphasised the Mayor of Lisbon.
