As you know, the European Scout Region of the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM) together with its partners in the Time To Be Welcome project is organising the Hand in Hand. Stronger Together event taking place 7 – 10 December 2018 in Brussels, Belgium. Within the scope of the event, the last day (10 December 2018) is dedicated to the dissemination and visibility of the work done in Europe to include refugees and migrant minors and youth in Scouting and other youth organisations. This activity will take place at the European Economic and Social Committee premises with the presence of the European Commission Vice President Jyrki Katainen.

As a culmination point of the event, a competition of best projects aiming at welcoming refugees and migrants in Scouting and Youth organisations is organised. All prizes will celebrate actions involving young volunteers and will target displaced young people in general, indifferently of their legal status in Europe (refugees, asylum seekers, migrants…).
