Every year, World Thinking Day has a different theme that Girl Guides and Girl Scouts around the world can learn about and take action on.
World Thinking Day 2026
This year, we're celebrating ‘Friendship’ and the bonds that grow and flourish within Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting. We're also exploring what makes a healthy friendship and the importance of community, both within our Movement and beyond.
By completing the activity pack, young people will engage in insightful activities and develop the skills needed to create positive change and feel empowered to work together to build a positive global community.
World Thinking Day Resources are now hosted on the new digital platform Campfire.

Penpal and postcard exchange
Exchanging postcards of friendship is a long-standing tradition for Girl Guides and Girl Scouts around the world. Members looking to set up connections with Member Organisations in other countries should use the verified contact pages for the International Commissioner office on the Our World section of the website.
WAGGGS Volunteers can also create international connections by joining our International Volunteer Network– all members in the network have been verified and approved as Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting members by their International Commissioner.
