As a result of that first meeting it was decided to organize a similar meeting annually – 2017 will see the 21st meeting. The Network Meeting is an annual event organized by Europe Region WAGGGS and WOSM – European Region, where we invite Guides and Scouts that represent their MO/NSOs on various external platforms including their National Youth Councils. The aim of the meeting is to improve our members (MOs and NSOs) standing and impact on society by supporting them in the field of external relations. The network meeting provides the opportunity for volunteers that are working in the field of external relations, communication, partnerships or other closely related areas from each Organization to come together to explore how conducting external relations can help our members to better fulfill the mission for Scouting and Guiding.

  • Report of the Secretary General Wosm
    REPORT OF THE SECRETARY GENERAL WOSM 39TH WORLD SCOUT CONFERENCE – BRAZIL 2011 1. INTRODUCTION When I had the privilege to present my report to the World Scout Conference in July 2008 in Jeju, Korea, I told you that it was the first time, and also the last time, that I was addressing the leaders our Movement as Acting Secretary General of WOSM. We indeed all knew that the process of appointment of a new Secretary General was to start soon and though I had secret hopes, as you can well imagine, nothing was decided. Today, it is again a privilege to report to the shareholders of our Movement in what I would call a more “comfortable” position. This was a busy short triennium, quite exceptional in terms of operations, since, for the first time in the history of the World Scout Bureau, we had to recruit in such a short time three new Regional Directors to fill three vacancies in the Africa, Eurasia and Interamerican Regional Offices and organize the move of two Regional Offices, the Eurasia Regional Office from Gurzuf to Kiev and the Interamerican Regional Office from Santiago in Chile to Panama. Since we last met in Korea, I have attended six Regional Conferences, three Regional Summits, at least two meetings of each Regional Committee in all Regions but one, and have visited a number of National Scout Organizations. On each occasion, I took opportunity to share with those present: • why I believe that the World Scout Bureau has demonstrated over all these years a rather high capacity to think strategically, to generate global goodwill, to
