Who can participate The World Scout Moot is an international event for young people 18 - 25 years of age who are members of a National Scouting Organisation affiliated with WOSM or aW AGGGS affiliated organisation.

Each country attending the Moot organises and sends a national contingent,comprised of all registered participants and IST members from that country. This means that individuals or small groups of Scouts cannot register directly with the Moot organizing team,but must instead register via their National Scouting Organisation. Only one contingent per country is permitted. Each National Scouting Organisation is responsible for all members of it’s contingent. Girl Guides and Girl Scouts who are members of an association belonging to the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) may attend the Moot with the consent of the Na- tional Scouting Organisation of their respective country. Each contingent consists of participants, International Service Team (IST) members and contingent management staff. The maximum number of participants per contingent is 500, as well as 100 IST and contingent management staff. Also,no contingent may have more IST and contin- gent management staff than it has participants.

Age Range Participants: On the first day of the Moot (19th July 2021), participants must be at least 18 years old, and must be under 26 years of age. Therefore they must have been born between 20th July 1995 and 19th July 2003. The theme for this Moot is le chéile (leh kay-la) which translates to ‘together’. There is International service team IST must be at least 26 years of an old saying in the Irish language; “ní neart go cur le chéile” which means “there is no age on 19th July 2021, e.g. their date of birth must be 19th strength without unity”.
