Melody Sucharewicz

Melody Sucharewicz is the winner of the second season of Israel's popular TV show, The Ambassador[1], a reality series resembling Donald Trump's The Apprentice TV format, though instead of business its theme is public diplomacy and political PR[2]. Elected among hundreds of candidates.

The aim is to choose, amongst several thousands of young professionals, a spokesperson for Israel. Rhetoric and diplomatic skills, social competence, coping with hostile media, and skills in creative political PR of 14 final candidates were tested throughout a series of international challenges (Uganda, Sweden, Russia, United States), later broadcast on Israel’s Channel Two. The three finalists of the show held speeches on their vision of peace at the headquarters of the United Nations in New York.

Chosen as the winner by a high profile committee (IDF General Gil Regev, journalist Rina Mazliach, media anchor Nachman Shai), Melody traveled around the world as a good will ambassador for Israel for one year[3]. Her activities ranged from speaking engagements at the European Parliament[4] to media appearances, publications[5] and interviews[6] concerning Israel's perception in the media and the Middle East peace process.

Born in Germany (Munich) in 1980, Melody Sucharewicz immigrated to Israel at the age of 19, where she earned a B.A. in sociology and anthropology and an M.Sc. in management sciences[7] at Tel Aviv University.

After finalizing her year as an international good will ambassador, she returned to Israel, where she works with the Peres Center for Peace. She continues to work as a representative for Israel, with most engagements taking place in Germany zdf.de.
