The Growth Network is composed by a group of Guides and Scouts representatives interested in Growth and membership development issues. Networkers represent their associations and during the meeting share best practices and counseling on the above mentioned topics.

The network has its origins from a number of Scout and Guide Associations from the European Region who had been co-operating with countries from sub-Saharan Africa. This interest was reflected in a European Seminar, held in Kigali, Rwanda from which came the Kigali Paper, an agreement on the principles for co-operation between Scout and Guide Associations in the developed and developing world, particularly Africa and Europe. A further seminar in Nairobi expanded the numbers of Associations which saw development as an important aspect of Guiding and Scouting.

The Overture Network encourages Guide and Scout associations in the Europe to open up the associations for young people originating from ethnic and other minority groups. The participation of children and youths with different backgrounds is based on the principle that Guiding and Scouting are open to all people.

The aim of this Network, is to strengthen and develop co-operation between Scout and Guide Centres around Europe and to help build strong working relationships and contacts between the staff at those Centres.

The Network organises every 2nd year (since 1989) a Centre Managers Conference and topics will include areas of common interest to Centres, such as staffing, safety, fund raising, as well as more specific subjects offered by the participants. Sessions will be run by participants and by invited guests.
