24th world scout jamboree taking place from 22 July – 2 August at the Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia, USA, the Jamboree will engage young people aged 14 to 17 in a wide range of educational activities that promote peace, cross-cultural understanding, and leadership skills for life.
The 24th World Scout Jamboree, jointly hosted by the USA, Canada, and Mexico, is set to be one of the biggest and most exciting Jamborees yet.
The theme of “Unlock a New World” will inspire Scouts to become active citizens and create a more sustainable world by learning about global issues such as climate change and gender inequality. Through activities that range from zip-lining and hiking to public speaking and leadership workshops, young people will develop skills to help them thrive in a rapidly changing world.
"The Jamboree is an extraordinary opportunity for young people to connect and learn from each other, while celebrating the diversity and unity of our global Movement of over 50 million strong," said Ahmad Alhendawi, Secretary General of the World Organization of the Scout Movement. "Through activities that engage young people in leadership training and dialogue about the peace and sustainability of our planet, the Jamboree is enabling young people to become active global citizens who are creating positive change in communities around the world."
