The YESS
Girl Movement

Dubbed the journey of a lifetime, the Youth Exchange South to South (YESS) Girls’ Movement is WAGGGS’ international exchange programme for young women (18-35 years) -undertaken in collaboration with NOREC, a Norwegian Government Agency.
From 2015 to date 331 young women from 17 MOs in Africa and the Asia-Pacific region have gone on international exchange through the program. The programme’s core mission is to create an empowering environment where young women confidently lead, raise their voices and make a difference on issues important to them at local, national and global levels.
