Mission statement:	Heart Ambassadors is a training company, global heart-based community, & service project incubator. Our mission is to build capacity in existing & aspiring world servers in every dimension of their lives (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, relational, organizational, environmental, global) to collectively contribute to the efforts that make this a world that works better for all. A project of The Fyera Foundation (a United States based 501c3 charitable NGO) & Fyera! Inc, a California S Corporation for social entrepreneurship and corporate responsibility, Heart Ambassadors is an organization of change-makers, social activists, scientists, health-care professionals, leaders, visionaries and peace-makers, dedicated to world service. There's a shift happening, toward caring more about supporting each other than getting ahead of one another. It is a shift toward caring more about taking care of the planet than taking advantage of its resources. This inner shift operates almost like a key code to a secret passageway, which leads to a new world- a world that works better for all. Including us. It does serve self, but from a new definition of “Self” that includes our connection to the whole. eart Ambass We call people who are living in alignment with this shift Heart Ambassadors. We come from all walks of life. Parents, students, therapists, coaches, artists, special ops forces, doctors, business people, elders, teachers, UN mediators and negotiators, bus drivers, chefs. We are not defined by our vocation, profession, or political orientation. We are defined by our ability to use our voices & actions to express human caring. Our orientation is toward a world view that recognizes our oneness as a foundation for our optimal future, personally and collectively. Our Program trains and builds capacity in individuals as well as organizations with these values to cultivate the best versions of themselves so they become powerfully effective agents of positive change, sustainable development & global peacebuilding in their homes, communities and the world. Our programs foster self-regulation based on peer reviewed researched tools & techniques, along with project incubation in harmony with the 17 sustainable development goals from the UN. We have been an official training company for the Federation of International Civil Servants at the UN: www.youaretheun.org & we work closely with the UN Peace Messenger Organization, Pathways To Peace: http://heartambassadors.pathwaystopeace.org Some of our trainings can be viewed at www.heartmastery.com and www.fyera-gov.org, as well as www.youaretheun.org. Some of the projects this capacity building has given birth to include things from helping alleviate poverty on the streets of Nicaragua (www.fyera.org) to contributing to efforts to ending sex trafficking worldwide (www.operationbigsister.org), & giving women a voice in media through our many panels at the UN Commission on the Status of Women & our launch of a Film Festival parallel to the Commission for Women filmmakers called “Women Illuminated” (www.womenilluminated.com) with partners at Global Women’s Empowerment Network and The Representation Project. We are firm believers in SDG 17, Partnerships for the Goals, & partner with organizations such as Mediators Beyond Borders International, Creativity for Peace, Peace Direct, HeartMath Institute, The Water Bearers (in support of SDG 6), Dream Tank (to help children contribute to the SDGs) and more. We also have a Heart Ambassador Award presented to individuals and organizations making advancements towards the SDGs. Always seeking to provide our members with inspiration from experts, we provide online interviews with our trainings and are currently offering a year-long course with 3x Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Scilla Elworthy on her book The Business Plan for Peace https://pages.heartambassadors.com/peace-reg .
Year established:	2002
Year of registration:	2007
Organizational structure:	We provide training to individuals and organizations through our for profit Fyera! Inc (incorporated in 2007), and incubate charitable world service projects that further the sustainable development goals under our non-profit umbrella The Fyera Foundation (incorporated in 2011). We have a board of directors consisting of 10 people from six different countries and three generations, holding the 8 Pathways To Peace from UN Peace Messenger organization Pathways To Peace: 1) GOVERNANCE/LAW/SECURITY 2) EDUCATION/MEDIA 3) ECONOMICS/BUSINESS 4) HEALTH/RELATIONSHIPS 5) SCIENCE/TECHNOLOGY 6) RELIGION/SPIRITUAL TEACHINGS 7) ENVIRONMENT/HABITAT 8) CULTURE The vision of our training programs and non-profit service projects are coherently aligned with the inspiration of our founder, CEO and President, Sheva Carr. People and organizations have the opportunity to join our membership based program on subscription or participate in individual trainings without memberships. Member privileges include the opportunity to apply for service project incubation and fiscal sponsorship under our non profit umbrella. Viability for incubation and fiscal sponsorship of projects is dependent upon the project’s congruence with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals from the UN. Members may also participate in specifically crafted online learning programs that develop personal depth and skills for world service. They include and are not limited to: Self Care & Development Emotional and physiological self regulation techniques developed by 30 years of peer reviewed research at the HeartMath Institute (for stress management, resilience, peak performance, situational awareness, personal and team coherence building and innovative problem solving) o Qi Gong o Meditation and Yoga o Right Relationship with Body, Mind, Spirit, Money, Sex, Family, Community o Lab Testing (for stress and resilience hormones, neurotransmitters, and microbiome) • Healing – Self and Wholeness o Self Healing o Polarity Therapy and its Four Branches of Bodywork, Counseling, Nutrition, Exercise o Distance Healing o Healing with the Arts o Healing with Humor o Freedom from Addictions and Compulsions o Healthy Happy Aging • World Service and Peace Building o Peace Building o Conflict Resolution o Mediation o Compassionate Dialogues o United Nations Mission and International Development o Diplomacy o Diversity Training o Gender Equity o Green Economics and Sustainability • Business/Service Development o Public Speaking/Keynoting/Coaching o Media as Impact for Measurable Social Change o Negotiation o Heart Based Business Development o Fundraising for Social Benefit o Blogging, Youtube Video Creation o Enneagram o Physics, Sacred Geometry o Non Dual Teachings o Opportunities to participate in Equine Guided Experiences, Dolphin Swims, and other Nature and Wildlife Encounters As we develop ourselves in all the skills needed, personally, professionally and globally, what naturally arises in our intuitive creativity are the ways in which we want to care for and serve the world. As we become whole we desire to contribute to the wholeness of the world. Members are empowered tactically as well as financially to manifest your dreams as we incubate your visions and service projects, and invite you to jump on board with members' projects already in motion, through our non-profit 501c3 umbrella The Fyera Foundation. Heart Ambassadors members are given opportunities to be delegates at United Nations conferences, attend events such as the International Day of Peace, and participate in our speaker's bureau to receive opportunities to share your voice and your vision for a world at peace on the national and international stage through our partnership at Pathways To Peace. We are now interested in hosting our own delegations to UN events, which is why we are preparing to apply for ECOSOC Consultative Status.
