Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting is active today in 153 countries around the world. 43 MOs helped develop Growing and Learning, ensuring it is informed by a diversity of perspectives and defining our shared growth outcomes. By learning from each other, we can find new ways to support our members in their learning journeys. Thank you to all the MOs who have contributed to this tool.


With our deepest appreciation to The McKenna Family and The World Foundation for Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, Inc. for their support to the Growing and Learning Programme.
