WOSM Circular 25/2011 – Funding opportunities for NSO/NSAs in Europe
You may recall that in the recent years the European Region has been increasingly trying to promote the use of as well as the accessibility to external sources of funding for Scouting in Europe.
Several efforts have been made to inform NSO/NSAs about European funding opportunities and good results have been achieved in terms of support to regional and national events and projects.
We have the pleasure to share with you the first of two documents that will hopefully be useful to you and your organisation: “Funding opportunities for NSOs and NSAs in Europe – Issue 1”. The document is a working tool for all NSOs and NSAs, aiming to offer comprehensive information about the different funding opportunities available in Europe. It will be added to as further information is available. It is overview of the available funding opportunities, with useful information and direct contacts. Particular attention is given to deadlines and procedures to enable you to be aware of the amount of time and preparation required for an application.

WOSM Circular 24/2011 – Partnership Fund
Resume of applications made to the Partnership Fund in the period following the last Regional Conference in Brussels, Belgium, in 2010.
The Partnership Fund provides a great opportunity for the Region to work with an Association and share the results.
Training Commissioners Network Meeting
In October 2010 the second Training Commissioners Network Meeting was held in Madrid. At the meeting it was decided to have a network meeting for national training commissioners once a year to share experiences and work in depth with various topics. The Magyar Cserkészszövetség (Hungarian Scout Association) generously hosts this meeting.
Organisational Development Workshop
The OD model and its “disciplines” were presented during the Academy 2011 in Paris. The model was well received and prompted some useful discussion by the participants. We have now prepared a workshop for NSOs to help them to explore the model, its relevance to their organisation and how this could help them to progress their strategic development and growth. The first time we run the workshop will be February 2012, this event is open to NSOs who are interested in it right now and later it will be available on request.

Call for hosting Roverway 2016
As advised earlier this year, the European Scout Committee and the Europe Committee WAGGGS, have agreed to stage the following edition of RoverWay in 2016 to avoid clashes with other events. They are confident that there is much to be gained for young people, for the Member Organisations and National Scout Organisations, and for the two Regions. We wish to stimulate the provision of opportunities for young people to share their own views and dreams, to discover other people’s ways of life, to build things together, to try new skills and live adventures in a small international community.
CALL
With this message, we ask WAGGGS Member Organisations and/or WOSM National Scout Organisations to host RoverWay in 2016.

The candidature document should include all information considered relevant for the consideration of the Joint Committee. This may include proposals for: motto, main educational activities and experiences, venue, dates, motivation, etc.
