WAGGGS Europe Committee Member

The Europe Regional Committee is seeking a new member who will play a key role in driving our ambitious plans to offer a quality Girl Guiding / Girl Scouting experience to many more girls and young women in the Region.

The new Europe Committee member will join the team midway through the current triennium. Therefore, considering the competencies and knowledge of the current members and the portfolios that the person will be leading, we have identified necessary skills and knowledge which you can find in the call.

We look forward to receiving applications for this exciting opportunity and to welcoming a new person to our committee!
