As is tradition in all previous World Scout Conferences, delegations of Member Organizations and partners have the opportunity to host side events to share their success stories and exchange experiences about supporting Scouting all around the world. This year a diverse lineup of National Scout Organizations and key partners of the Movement have organised an array of insightful and engaging side events.
The side events are displayed in the agenda on the digital participation platform and can be favourited to add to yourindividual calendars. Side events are open for all participants of the World Scout Conference, except for the gathering of the Bronze Wolf Awardees, which is by invitation only due the nature of the gathering.
