World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) Survey
Did you know….The World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts is a worldwide Movement providing non-formal education
where girls and young women develop leadership and life skills through self-development, challenge and adventure? Girl Guides
and Girl Scouts learn by doing. The World Association brings together Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting Associations in 144
countries across the globe. The WAGGGS website www.wagggsworld.org has resources to help you learn more about Girl Guiding
and Girl Scouts and plan your World Thinking Day celebrations.
As we come up to the 100th birthday of Girl Guides in 2010, WAGGGS is looking for input to further its mission "to enable girls
and young women to develop their fullest potential as responsible citizens of the world." And build towards its vision for 2011 "We
are a growing worldwide Movement - the voice of girls and young women who influence issues they care about and build a better
world." Your help is needed to accomplish this goal.
The World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) has launched a worldwide survey on volunteering that seeks to
find out about girls' and young women's (age 11 - 24) understanding of volunteerism, and what motivates young people to join
organizations and inspires them to become leaders. Results will be announced at the July 2008 World Conference.
