Young Women’s Event

The Asia Pacific Region are delighted that we will celebrate a Young Women’s event (for young women aged 18 to 30 years old) prior to the Conference. This means that the young women participating in the pre-event should stay to join the main Conference to continue with the project of young women in governance.

The Young Women’s event will support young women who are passionate about our Movement to pursue a governance or leadership position within their MO or WAGGGS. It will also link to the current global project to deliver Motion 32 of the 36th World Conference - to look into the reasons why more young women are not standing for governance positions and to develop a set of actions that will significantly increase the number doing so. 

The Young Women’s event will run from Sunday 11 August to Monday 12 August 2019. 

You can apply for the Young Women’s event when registering: https://eu.eventscloud.com/ap-reco.

Registration deadline is 19th April 2019.

WAGGGS aims to provide grants to attend the Young Women’s Event for one young woman from each Asia Pacific Member Organisation with less than 50,000 members and two young women from each Asia Pacific Member Organisation with more than 50,000 members. The same participants will be able to apply for a grant to cover the Regional Conference fee.
