World Scout Conference 2027

Founding the Future Together

Scouts was founded in a spirit of innovation, determination and change. To create a better, brighter future for young people. Full of possibility, opportunity, friendship and adventure, where young people’s voices could be heard. London 2027 is a moment to rekindle that original spirit. To reconnect with bright optimism in which the movement was founded. It’s a moment to make a promise to a new generation.

Bear Grylls, UK Chief Scout


Bid for the 44th World Scout Conference
in the UK, Scouting’s Founding Nation

If successful, the World Scout Conference in London 2027 will bring together thousands of Scouts from 173 National Scout Organizations and global partners. Together, we will shape the future of the world’s largest youth Movement. It’s a moment to reflect, reboot and renew – Founding the Future Together. We’ll look at all we’ve achieved and share what we’ve learned. We’ll look at where we’ve come from, as well as where we’re going.
