Dear friends in Scouting,
With a warm greeting in the spirit of the Scout Movement, we are pleased to inform you that, after approval by the Interamerican Scout Committee, Colombia has been selected as the host country for the upcoming JAMCAM 2025.
The JAMCAM (Interamerican Scout Jamboree and Interamerican Scout Camporee) is one of the most important events of the Scout Movement in our region. It combines the spirit of adventure of a Jamboree with the energy and enthusiasm of a Camporee, bringing together thousands of Scouts from the Americas to share a unique experience of learning, personal growth, and celebration of our Scout brotherhood.
Under the motto “America United for Peace,” this event represents a unique opportunity to strengthen the Scout Movement in our region and take a significant step toward our shared vision of being the most inspiring and inclusive educational youth movement in the world.
Preliminary event details
The JAMCAM 2025 will take place at the Comfandi Pance Countryside Center, in the city of Cali, Colombia, from 27 December 2025 to 1 January 2026. This location not only offers a privileged and safe setting but is also ideal for the development of a dynamic and transformative program.

A transformative experience
The JAMCAM 2025 will not just be a camp; it will be a space for transformative learning, where thousands of young people will live unforgettable experiences that will mark their lives. This event will promote cooperation, empathy, solidarity, freedom, gratitude, and peace, all while strengthening the bonds of Scout friendship across the Americas.
