What does a world you can be proud of look like?

Conflict and challenge around the world continues to escalate and the news is dominated with tension. Guiding and Scouting provide a strong foundation for our members to create good values and develop as individuals. How can we use these foundations to create a world they can be proud of? This is the focus of the Academy 2024.

Each day of the Academy will focus on a type of world we want to create:

The world I want to change – what are participants taking home from the Academy and how will they continue to implement their learnings.

A connected world –  what are the foundations of Guiding and Scouting and how do we foster these and maintain a quality programme as we continue to grow as organisations.

A peaceful world – how do we create a world in which we prioritise safety, both physical and psychological, so we can meet the world’s challenges.

A sustainable world – how can we ensure our organisations and us remain resilient and operate in an environmentally focussed way towards a sustainable future as we adapt to a new digital age.

A purposeful world – how do we connect members at all levels of our organisations to their purpose and empower them to shape their future.

We would like to encourage participants to choose from a variety of sessions per day, composing their own training plan to match their position and particular needs. A broad range of sessions dealing with different areas of work will be offered simultaneously, with enough on offer to make the event interesting for everyone.

A detailed description of each session, providing goals, objectives and expected outcomes, will be published on the website in the beginning of October 2024.

Additionally, it is possible for participants to offer informal sharing sessions to tell others of major innovations and successes from their organisations that would be of benefit to others. Details regarding the application for this session will be provided at a later date.
