This year, in August 2021, up to 3,500 leaders from 171 National Scout Organizations (NSOs) and global partners will come together online during the 42nd World Scout Conference and 14th World Scout Youth Forum to shape the future of the world’s leading educational youth movement.
Under the theme “Bridging the World”, this virtual Conference and Youth Forum will be the largest ever convened in the event’s 100-year history. Through an online conferencing platform, delegations will be able to access workshops, plenaries, social events, pre-engagement sessions and on-demand content through a connected experience while networking with Scouts and global partners from around the world to gain new insights and inspiration.
