Helen Storrow seminariet äger rum 22-30 mars. Det bygger på WAGGGS’ ledarutvecklingsprogram WLDP (WAGGGS Leadership Development Programme), som du kan läsa mer om på WAGGGS hemsida. Denna gång har seminariet ett miljötema. Ansökningsdeadline är förlängd så att din ifyllda ansökan senast tisdag 10 dec skall ha nått international.secretary@scouterna.se. Hjälp till att sprida och tipsa dina miljöengagerade scoutkompisar (som är 18-25 år, aktiv scoutledare och tjej).  Läs mer om deltagarprofil mm nedan och på Our Chalets hemsida: Helen Storrow seminariet.

Du behöver själv stå för kostnaden och resa, men Scouterna internationella grupp hjälper dig med tips på bra fonder att söka. Det finns även stipendium hos WAGGGS kopplat till detta seminarium men som med alla stipendium och fonder är det inget som är garanterat utan bygger på hur stark din ansökan och profil är.
