The World Conference is a highlight in the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts calendars when Member Organisations (MOs) from across the world come together to celebrate our successes, reflect on our past work, and focus on the future. It is a key event for MOs to make connections; elect six new World Board members; discuss and shape the future of the Movement based on MO current needs, interests, and priorities; make new friends, and share best practices; and work together to explore tools and resources to expand Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting.
Inspired by their Compass 2032 vision, the theme of the 38th World Conference was Dream,
Act, Lead: The future is ours. Together, they dreamt of what an equal world where all girls
can thrive looks like; acting and leading the way to make their vision a reality by 2032.

The conference had live interpretation in the four WAGGGS languages English, French, Spanish and Arabic led by the amazing Team Lead Jo.
Members of WAGGGS Member Organisations voted on their new World Board and Chair alongside voting of the upcoming strategy of WAGGGS.
Conference attendees were able to attend numerous social gatherings such as Opening Ceremony, International Night, Cyprus Night and the Closing Ceremony. They each had their own themes and food choices.
Thank you very much for all the preparation and hard work during the conference. We greatly appreciate your passion and enthusiasm.
Physical World Conferences really offer the opportunity to grasp the spirit of WAGGGS and are thus essential.
