Dear friends & brothers/sisters in Scouting We are pleased to convey the message to all of you around the world. “We are a Movement, not an Organization” - As it describes the spirit of our movement what Lord Baden Powell mentioned. To be host of the 25th World Scout Jamboree, we respect the “values” and spirit of our movement. Scouting is the movement which invite and accepts every human-being beyond the Nationality, Race, Class or Creed. As a contender of 25th World Scout Jamboree, We would like to describe the World Scout Jamboree that harmonizes between true value of scouting and our cordial passion to the scouting. “Empowering the young people is the key of success.” The aim for the World scout Jamboree is not to be organized by adult, but it is to be made by young people themselves that could find the real value of youth engagement. To be leading the Jamboree by empowering young people, is the aim what we make a reality. 2023 will be the great turning point for World scout movement which will be the year of achieving World scout Vision 2023 and era of social transforming. For this reason, the 25th World Scout Jamboree must reflect those facts to our scout movement, also be the place to develop our young people’s creativeness and provide new type of the education. Korea Scout Association is ready to accept challenge for more innovations- of scout movement and contribute to make new dimension of scouting by hosting the 25th World Scout Jamboree. Bidding to host the greatest World Scout Jamboree ever, we are strongly supported by local and Central Government of Korea. Kindly ask you to support Korea to host the 25th World Scout Jamboree in 2023. Hope to see you at 41st World Scout Conference in Baku, Azerbaijan.
