From 9–10 April 2026, 30 young scouts from across Zimbabwe came together, not simply as delegates, but as the voice of a generation. The 18th National Scout Youth Forum was more than a gathering; it was a powerful expression of youth leadership in action.

Guided by the theme Youth Voices. Shared Vision. Stronger Scouting., participants stepped into a dynamic space for dialogue, influence, and collaboration. Representing every province, they brought forward the aspirations, challenges, and ideas of thousands of Scouts across the country.

Across the two days, conversations sparked new thinking and bold direction. From strengthening youth leadership and enhancing programme quality, to championing inclusion and embracing digital innovation, every discussion reinforced a shared truth: young people are not just participants in Scouting, they are co-creators of its future.

Congratulations to the young leaders of Zimbabwe for raising their voices, shaping decisions, and driving a stronger future for Scouting.

Today, the Youth Advisors to the Africa Scout Committee had the pleasure of joining the Induction Training of the Nigeria Youth Advisors Committee; a great step toward strengthening youth leadership and participation in Scouting.

The session created space for meaningful conversations on the role of youth advisors, effective youth engagement, and how young people can contribute to shaping the future of Scouting at national, regional, and global levels. It was inspiring to see such a committed group of young leaders ready to serve, represent their peers, and support the growth of youth-led initiatives.
