Dear Friends,
As there were no bidders for the regional Scout events listed below at the 19th Africa Scout Conference, the Africa Scout Committee, at its meeting in Nairobi in November 2025, decided to reopen the call for bids for these events. The Africa Support Centre is pleased to announce that the call is now open for bids from National Scout Organizations (NSOs) to host the following events:
1. Africa Scout Day 2027
2. Africa Scout Day 2028
3. Africa Scout Day 2029
4. 3rd Africa Scout Moot, 2030
In compliance with the respective attached guidelines, interested NSOs are encouraged to complete and forward their duly signed bid in the attached form to [email protected] by 28 April 2026, along with a motivation letter, proposed venue, proposed budget and a confirmation of approval and support by the government through the relevant Ministry.
Also note that, apart from arrangements relative to their specific age group (18-25 for the Africa Scout Moot), guidelines for hosting an Africa Scout Moot are the same as the ones for the Africa Scout Jamboree (19ASConfDoc5).
Also note that, as part of the bidding process, bidders may be required to cover the cost of a feasibility assessment field visit by the regional team as per the attached regional events technical visit assessment guide (19ASConfDoc6).
All events must comply with the WOSM Events Strategy, Document 8 of the 43rd World Scout Conference, attached here as 19ASConfDoc7.
If you need any further clarification and support with the process, kindly reach out to the Africa Regional Office at [email protected].
Yours in Scouting,
Frederic Tutu Kama-Kama
Regional Director, Africa
