Conference Report
2005-2008 World Committee Action Plan
In June 2005, in Lillehammer, half of the members of 2005-2008 World Committee will be
new....so who will do what?
The Strategic Plan of ISGF indicates three Objectives which are: strengthening existing
fellowships, supporting the creation of new fellowships at home and in new countries,
identifying and activating opportunities and actions for support and service towards national
or international communities.
The World Committee should stick to these objectives and for that should increase its human
and financial resources.
strengthening existing fellowships:
support the NSGF to implement the strategic plan
make advocacy campaigns on important society issues
improve the communications with the NSGFs
create concrete projects to be implemented by the NSGFs
raise funds for those concrete projects (at a world level)
create a special fund to help developing countries to attend conferences (world or
regional)
supporting the creation of new fellowships at home and in new countries
support already existing NSGFs to implement the strategic plan in order to create new
Local SGF
propose a project for the NSGFs of developed countries to take in charge the creation
of new NSGFs in countries where there are none
make sure that a good follow-up of the Youth Forum is done and help the NSGF to
implement the decisions taken
create a development plan for ASPAC, Africa, Western Hemisphere with the existing
NSGF, with the CB members, with the members of the World Committee in charge of
these regions, with the CB coordinator, with the person in charge of the twinning, with
the WB
ensure the follow-up of the Uganda gathering (and prepare a gathering in West Africa
in 2006/7)
work with WAGGGS and WOSM to identify the countries
** where Guiding and Scouting are strong enough to create new LSGF or NSGF
with young former guides and scouts
** but also where guiding and scouting are old enough to have older members
identifying and activating opportunities and actions for support and service towards
national and international communities.
A part of the goal 3 of the strategic plan is devoted to this.
focus on the challenges of our time (environment, peace...) and work with WAGGGS,
WOSM, UN, NGOs or by ourselves...
focus on the needs of developing countries (cooperation activities, literacy, training,
health...) and work with WAGGGS and WOSM to support the National associations
or work with our NSGF if there is any activity with a developing country (financial
support or any other support) or having our own activity through the CB members and
the NSGF of these countries
