+
+## Ambassador Code of Conduct
+
+While the wider GraphQL community abides by the
+[contributor covenant code of conduct](https://graphql.org/codeofconduct/), a
+stronger set of standards is used for the Ambassador Program. This is because
+the Foundation endorses Ambassadors as representatives and leaders; the
+Standards of Excellence are designed to provide a set of guidelines and best
+practices for engaging with the GraphQL Foundation and broader community. This
+makes it easier for Ambassadors to contribute to a positive culture by providing
+clarity around what and how we create a safe and collaborative environment. See
+[Standards of Excellence](./standards-of-excellence.md).
+
+## Application Process
+
+Applications are open year-round and are received by a small panel of Foundation
+and TSC members. Once the Ambassadors program is fully up-and-running,
+Ambassadors will also have the option to review applications. The Ambassador
+term is a year long, Ambassadors who continue to meet the expectations will be
+invited to join again at the end of their term.
+
+Applications can be from the applicant themselves, or a nomination from another
+community member.

+
+# GraphQL Ambassador Program Standards of Excellence
+
+While the wider GraphQL community abides by the
+[contributor covenant code of conduct](https://graphql.org/codeofconduct/), a
+stronger set of standards is used for the Ambassador Program. This is because
+the Foundation endorses Ambassadors as representatives and leaders; the
+Standards of Excellence are designed to provide a set of guidelines and best
+practices for engaging with the GraphQL Foundation and broader community. This
+makes it easier for Ambassadors to contribute to a positive culture by providing
+clarity around what and how we create a safe and collaborative environment.
+
+## Scope
+
+If you are a GraphQL Ambassador, these Standards apply to you. This means they
+apply to your statements and actions in your capacity as a GraphQL Foundation
+representative, whether they occur online or offline, and whether they occur
+within community spaces or outside of community spaces.
+
+In addition to complying with these Standards of Excellence, GraphQL Ambassadors
+are also required to comply with the [GraphQL Code of Conduct](https://graphql.org/) and the [Linux
+Foundation Events Code of Conduct](https://events.linuxfoundation.org/about/code-of-conduct/), and all other applicable GraphQL Foundation
+policies, rules, or guidelines.
+
+## Be Kind, Welcoming, and Inclusive
+
+- Be kind to others.
+- Promote a friendly atmosphere where people feel comfortable asking questions,
+ participating in discussions, and making contributions.
+- Show gratitude and appreciation for others. Look for opportunities to say
+ “thank you” and recognize people when they are being helpful or making
+ contributions.
+- Make a conscious effort to welcome and be inclusive of newcomers and people
+ who are different from you.
+- Show empathy, care, and concern for others’ feelings, perspectives, and
+ experiences.
+
+## Be Respectful and Professional
+
+- At all times, conduct yourself in a manner that is appropriate for a
+ professional environment.
+- Always treat others with courtesy and respect. Rude, insulting, offensive,
+ disparaging, or threatening statements or behaviors are not permitted.
+
+## Handle Disagreements Respectfully
+
+We want to encourage the candid exchange of ideas and feedback and foster an
+environment in which people can openly agree or disagree with each other, so
+long as they do so respectfully. Disagreements are not an excuse for bad
+behavior. As a GraphQL Ambassador, you are expected to:
+
+- Respond to differences of opinion in a respectful manner.
+- Make a conscious effort to understand other people’s perspectives and learn
+ the facts before you publicly take a stand on any highly controversial issue.
+- Seek to resolve conflict and disagreement in a respectful and collaborative
+ manner and encourage others to do the same.
+
+## Promote and Enhance the GraphQL Brand
+
+As a GraphQL Ambassador, part of your role is to promote and enhance the GraphQL
+brand and contribute to goodwill and positive relations among the Foundation and
+others in GraphQL ecosystem. Nonetheless, you can be honest and candid with
+constructive criticism, holding others accountable, identifying opportunities
+for improvement, and discussing potential challenges. However, always express
+yourself in a manner that is respectful and professional, and strive to also be
+tactful and sensitive to how your words may impact others. See the “Be Graceful
+With Feedback” section below for suggestions on how to deliver feedback
+constructively and kindly.
+
+As a GraphQL Ambassador, your actions can reflect either positively or poorly on
+the GraphQL community, Foundation, and brand. Therefore, engaging in activity
+that is illegal, immoral, fraudulent, deceptive, or is otherwise likely to
+damage the reputation of the GraphQL community, Foundation, or Ambassador
+Program, is grounds for immediate suspension or removal from the GraphQL
+Ambassador Program.
+
+## Don’t use GraphQL community spaces or your role as an Ambassador to promote political causes
+
+Your role as a GraphQL Ambassador is to be used for the purpose of evangelizing
+GraphQL and otherwise contributing to the GraphQL community and ecosystem. Both
+the GraphQL Code of Conduct and these Standards of Excellence prohibit use of
+GraphQL community spaces for political campaigning or promotion of political
+causes that are unrelated to the advancement of GraphQL technology.
+
+Outside of GraphQL community spaces, you are free to engage in political
+activities and support causes you choose. However, when you discuss political
+causes that are unrelated to GraphQL, please keep those discussions separate
+from your engagement in GraphQL and separate from your role as a GraphQL
+Ambassador. For example, if you choose to promote a political cause unrelated to
+technology on X or LinkedIn in your personal time, please do so in posts and
+discussion threads that are separate from GraphQL-related discussions.
+
+## Be Graceful With Feedback
+
+- Giving others kudos and recognition is a great way to contribute to a positive
+ environment. Therefore, feel free to share positive feedback in both public
+ and private forums.
+- When it comes to negative feedback or criticism, remember that none of us are
+ perfect. We all make mistakes. Most people are good people who are trying to
+ do good things. Therefore, when others make mistakes, strive to be
+ understanding. When you make a mistake, take responsibility and do your best
+ to learn and improve.
+- Always share feedback or criticism in a respectful, courteous, and
+ professional manner. Additionally, always strive to present negative feedback
+ or criticism in a constructive manner (e.g. as suggestions for improvement)
+ rather than a destructive manner (e.g. insults or degrading language).
+- When you have negative feedback or criticism about an individual (other than a
+ public figure), please share it privately to help the individual learn and
+ grow. Please avoid sharing negative feedback or criticism about an individual
+ (other than a public figure) publicly, because this could cause unnecessary
+ shame, embarrassment, or humiliation.
+- When you have negative feedback or criticism about an organization or public
+ figure, you may share it publicly or privately, so long as you do so in a
+ respectful, courteous, and professional manner.
+
+## Consequences for Violation
+
+If the GraphQL Foundation determines that a GraphQL Ambassador has violated
+these Standards of Excellence, or if a GraphQL Ambassador has been found in
+violation of the GraphQL Code of Conduct or the Linux Foundation Events Code of
+Conduct, the GraphQL Foundation, at its sole discretion, may take any action
+that it deems appropriate under the circumstances, including asking the GraphQL
+Ambassador to remove offending content from community spaces or public spaces,
+or suspending or removing the individual from the GraphQL Ambassador Program.
+
+## Questions and Reporting
+
+If you have questions about these Standards of Excellence, or if you would like
+to report a potential violation, please send an email to [insert email address]
+and the current community manager will contact you. We will respond promptly to
+all questions and reports.
+
+## Updates
+
+The GraphQL Foundation reserves the right to modify these Standards of
+Excellence at any time, at its sole discretion. The GraphQL Foundation will
+notify GraphQL Ambassadors of major changes to the guidelines by email [and via
+the GraphQL Ambassador Discord channel]. However, any changes to these
+guidelines will not apply retroactively. If these guidelines are updated and a
+GraphQL Ambassador does not wish to agree, their participation in the GraphQL
+Ambassador Program will cease until such time as they do agree.
