PERSONAL STATEMENT
What motivates you to serve on the WAGGGS World Board, and how would your experiences, skills, values, and perspective contribute to its governance, strategic leadership, and the global mission of the Movement?
When I attended my first World Conference in 2014 as a delegate from Girl Scouts of Taiwan, I was not yet certain what kind of leader I could become. What Girl Guiding gave me — over twelve years of growing through this Movement — was not just a title or a platform. It gave me the conviction that I had both the right and the responsibility to speak up for the world. That belief transformed the way I lead: from a young delegate learning to find her voice, to Mentor Team Lead for the Juliette Low Seminar guiding 55 mentors across 32 countries, to Head of Delegation at NGO CSW69, bringing the voice of Girl Scouts of Taiwan to the global stage.
The challenge WAGGGS faces on its path toward Compass 2032 is urgent: to become a truly girl-led Movement where every and any girl feels confident to lead. I believe the defining work of this moment is digital transformation — and making sure it works for girls, not against them. Across our 153 Member Organisations, artificial intelligence is already reshaping how girls learn, connect, and build futures. Some girls are gaining skills that will empower them for decades; others are being shaped by systems that were never designed with them in mind. Bridging that divide is not a simple technical challenge. It is a governance challenge. And it is the contribution I am most prepared to make. As Teaching Training and Government Relations Account Manager at Junyi Academy, Taiwan’s leading EdTech NGO, I work at the intersection of AI literacy policy, government relations, and large-scale educator training — helping public institutions translate digital transformation from aspiration into equitable, practical action.
My background also spans environmental advocacy at Greenpeace East Asia, where I led multi-stakeholder campaigns that influenced national climate policy, and project management across civil society and corporate sectors. These experiences taught me that meaningful change requires patience, evidence, and the courage to hold a principled position under pressure — all of which governance at Board level demands.
The decision to stand for the World Board took two years of deliberate reflection. I kept returning to one question: what does WAGGGS most need right now, and what can I genuinely bring? I came to believe that a voice bringing diverse regional perspectives, grounded in real-world digital transformation and advocacy practice — combined with twelve years of deep commitment to this Movement — is what this Board needs as it leads us toward 2032. The world today is less peaceful than when I made my first Promise. But it is precisely in uncertain times that Girl Guides and Girl Scouts walk forward — purposeful, grounded, and unafraid. I am ready to help lead that walk.
