TGASC(Taiwan) - Potential Bid for the 17th World Scout Moot in 2029

TGASC(Taiwan) - Potential Bid for the 17th World Scout Moot in 2029

The World Scout Committee just announced their decision for the future World Scout Events during the recent meeting in Kuala Lumpur in September 2023.

For the World Scout Moot, the World Scout Committee announced that due to its nature of being an educational event, it will be considered at the next meeting in March 2024 after reflecting on the learnings and outcomes of the Panel of Experts reviewing the 25th World Scout Jamboree.

However, the World Scout Committee noted two potential bids from the Scout Association of Azerbaijan and our Scout Association for bidding on the 19th World Scout Moot in 2029. Thus, we are proud to announce that we are prepared for the potential bid for hosting this World Event in Taiwan.

Scouts of China(Taiwan) successfully hosted the 12th World Scout Moot in Taiwan in 2004. There were 3,000 rovers and young adults from 87 NSOs worldwide who had a good time and left Taiwan with great memories. If we could win the bid to host the 19th World Scout Moot in 2029 again, it will be a great opportunity for us to welcome all the rovers and young adults from 174 NSOs to Taiwan to enjoy the fun, nature and take the Global challenges that we are facing and work out our solutions.

Under the leadership of Mr. LIN Yu-Chang, former Chief Commissioner, and Mr. CHENG Wen-Tsan, the current Chief Commissioner, our National Board has approved our bid for this World Events, and we have full support from them. We hosted staff from the World Scout Bureau to visit our proposed site, and we completed our GSAT 3.0 after completing GSAT 2.0 in 2019. These measures strengthen our proposed potential bid.
