As the world continues to navigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, WAGGGS is committed to supporting our 150 national Member Organisations to respond and adapt to this shared challenge, and to keep leading #ForHerWorld at this time.
Supporting Girl Guide and Girl Scout organisations
We have formed a working group of highly experienced volunteer advisors to provide consultancy support to Member Organisations on request during this time. Our advisors can act as a sounding board for you and are on hand to help navigate changes around adapting programme delivery, grants or funding applications, leadership and communications or other advice.
To request support, MO national leadership teams can complete this form in English, French, Spanish or Arabic.
Download our advice on adjusting to working from home with your teams. We have set up this page to keep you informed of our response to COVID-19, and to share all our support information and resources in one place. We will share great ideas and practices between countries, celebrate the inspiring examples of how Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting is still creating spaces for girls and making a difference, and keep the Movement’s flame burning bright.
This page will be updated regularly
