Take Action

WAGGGS aims not only to speak out on behalf of girls and young women everywhere, but also to empower them to speak out for themselves. Only when girls and young women raise their voice, join together and support each other can we bring about change and build a better world.

There are many ways for you and your fellow Girl Guides and Girl Scouts to take action in your country and become part of ’10 million girls...1 voice’.
