Our Impact
A trip to any of the World Centres is an unforgettable international guiding experience. Girls and Young women leave the centres with:
- New skills and knowledge
- A global sisterhood for life
- Confidence and agency
World Centre participants travel home as powerful changemakers ready to lead, and create a better world together.
Every World Centre changemaker is unique and makes an impact in their own way from:
- leading a social action project in their own community, like Rayya who led an environmental clean-up campaign in the Maldives to;
- advocating for Girls’ Rights locally, nationally, and globally like Lucia, who stood up for girls’ rights on a global stage at the UN to;
- securing a job that makes a difference, like Hirwa who got a job working to protect human rights in Rwanda and;
- strengthening their Member Organisation, WAGGGS, and Movement by continuing to volunteer like Candela became vice-chair of the WAGGGs World World Board.
