 With ten million Girl Guides and Girl Scouts from 145 countries across the world, the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) is the largest voluntary movement dedicated to girls and young women in the world. |
 Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting are open to all girls and young women whatever their religion, ethnic group or background. A Girl Guide or Girl Scout accepts the Promise and the Law based on spiritual values, personal development and commitment to helping others. |

 In 1909 several girls demanded a place for girls at the Crystal Palace Boy Scout Rally. They were the very first advocates of the Movement - speaking out and challenging the norms and gender conventions of the time. To honour our history and to build for the future, WAGGGS will celebrate the centenary of the international Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting Movement over three years, from 2010 to 2012. |
 Through its Member Organizations and through working directly with girls and young women, WAGGGS delivers high quality non-formal educational programmes and international opportunities that provide girls and young women dynamic, flexible and values-based training in life skills, leadership and citizenship. |

 Your expertise, skills, interests, life experience, and availability are needed! Without the commitment of the nearly 1.5 million volunteers around the world, Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting could not happen. |
 The World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts works with many national, regional and international organizations and alliances to further its mission to enable girls and young women to develop to their fullest potential and become responsible citizens of the world. It has partnered with the United Nations for over 60 years.

My name is Zoë and I am a Cadette Scout from Chicago. I had the pleasure of participating in the flag ceremony Thursday at the forum. I love Girl Scouts and my sister scouts, it was very exciting to meet Girl Scouts and Girl Guilds from other cities and countries. I love being in this organization to help people, my Troop and I have collected food and clothing for the less fortunate, donate toys for children of domestic violence, planted trees, adopted a family for Christmas, and we are currently collecting books to donate to children to help promote literacy. This is an awesome organization and I encourage girls to join. :D

HI.
I am a Girl Guide from Liberia. I'll be attending the Girl World Forum in Chicago, U.S.A. I would love to meet all my colleagues from all around the globe. I am sure it'll be real nice being there.
