image_cir05_2018

The European Scout Region of the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM), in collaboration with the Estonian Scout Association, is pleased to invite you to the European Scout Communications Forum 2018, which will be held from 31 May to 3 June 2018 in Tallinn, Estonia.

The topic of Public Image of Scouting has not been strongly present in the plans of the European Scout Region for some years. The European Scout Conference in Norway in 2016 changed that and decided that communications should become one of the important issues of the 2016 – 2019 triennium. Also, the World Scout Conference in Baku repeatedly confirmed the Public Image of Scouting as one of the key areas of development. The European Scout Communications Forum 2018 will be the most important event of the Region dealing with this topic.
