Summary of proposed chapter

I am hoping to write a chapter on ambassador schemes, aiming for it to be a resource for people who might want to develop one of these (particularly for early career researchers).

These schemes can vary widely so they can be hard to define but some examples are:
https://elixiruknode.org/activities/fellowship/
https://www.software.ac.uk/programmes/fellowship-programme
https://elifesciences.org/inside-elife/f744fae0/elife-community-ambassadors-welcoming-128-researchers-to-the-programme

The plan will be to write a general landing page on these schemes and then invite case studies to showcase different experiences with different schemes. I will be writing a case study on the Turing-Roche Community Scholar Scheme: https://www.turing.ac.uk/research/research-projects/alan-turing-institute-roche-strategic-partnership/community-scholars

Who can help?

I would love anyone's help on writing the landing page draft. I am currently working in a HackMD note here: https://hackmd.io/wyh1cjkuQ_2m4IFMMIsEaA

I also know that what these schemes are called can vary widely e.g fellowship, ambassador, scholar, champion. Personally I think ambassador is the most recognisable term (particularly as fellowship can often have other meanings e.g senior members of institutes like University of Cambridge) but would love any opinions on the naming of this chapter
