Dear fellow adult scouts and guides,
Just some words to wish you a happy Saint George’s Day, patron of the Scouts. May he continue to guide and inspire all the Scouts in the world.
Have a nice Saint George’s Day !

Dear participants in the Europe Region Conference,
Following the difficult decision made yesterday to postpone the Europe Region Conference, the Host Committee was able to negotiate with the hotel, and we will be able to ensure the same price and hold the Europe Region Conference between the 2nd and the 6th of November 2026.
Dear friends,
You are all invited to participate in the Portuguese Adult Scouts and Guides Federation – FEGA 1st National Camp and the 11th National Camp of Fraternidade de Nuno Álvares, the catholic adults scouts association, which will
be held from the 3rd to the 7th of June 2026 in the Oporto region, north of Portugal.
Dear Friends,
Happy Thinking Day to all the Scouts and Guides of the world !
Another year has begun and already the Adults Scouts and Guides from several regions have had some hard situations to tackle with, unexpected “activities”.
Climate changes have reached places in our world that were not ready for them and local NSGF´s promptly showed up and helped as they could.
The Trinbago Scout and Guide Fellowship will be the host at the ISGF 4th Western Hemisphere Regional Conference. Set against the vibrant culture and natural beauty of the twin-island nation of Trinidad & Tobago, this conference is the platform for collaboration, leadership and growth.
Together we will strengthen our shared vision, build lasting connections, and elect the Western Hemisphere Regional Committee. We will look forward to gathering with you where inspiration meets action and lasting memories are made.
Dear members of ISGF,
Time has passed so quickly, and here I am once again writing to you as we approach a new year.
2025 has been quite a whirlwind, if I may say so… The world and its leaders often seem a bit lost. Our planet is suffering, and our communities are facing increasing challenges.
The 7th Southern Europe Sub Region (SESR) Meeting and the 18th Mediterranean Meeting (MED Gathering), took place at the Caribbean World Djerba Hotel, in Djerba, Tunisia, from 1 to 6 November 2025 with a total of 118 participants.
The 7th South American Sub Region Gathering was held in Cusco, Peru from 23rd-26th of October 2025. 41 Members participated from Argentina (10), Bolivia (5), Chile (3), Peru (15), Uruguay (3), Venezuela (2), Curaçao (1) and Spain (2).
Congratulations to the Dutch Scout and Guide Fellowship committee for organising an excellent Gathering this October. The group accommodation Hygge near Bergeijk was a great base for exploring the area, as we were challenged to learn new skills on the theme of “Doing after Learning”.
The 29th Western Europe sub-regional Gathering took place from 10 – 14 October 2025 in the small village of Bergeijk in the south of the Netherlands and organized by the Dutch Scout and Guide Fellowship. This event was attended by 44 participants. Belgium 5, Denmark 1, Egypt 1, France 1, Germany 7, Ghana 5, Ireland 6, Luxembourg 2, Netherlands 13, United Kingdom 3.
The Portuguese Federation of Adult Scouts and Guides (FEGA), celebrated Fellowship Day with a face-to-face meeting that brought together members of the 3 Associations that comprise it. It took place in the town of Batalha, in the center of the country, and which was attended by the Chairman of the ISGF World Committee, Ana Rodrigues.
