The World Scout Youth Forum is an educational tool to support the process of developing youth participation in partnership with adults and young members in the oldest age sections. It is an event that empowers and inspires young people through a participatory approach, helping them to develop skills in decisionmaking which can be used within Scouting and in the wider society.

This long tradition started with Alpine Weeks for Rovers in the 1930s and was rekindled in 2011 with the first International Rover Week. Since then, Kisc hosted a total of four International Rover Weeks, both in Summer and Winter. This year edition of the event takes place 11-13 April.
The content available at rovernet.eu is meant to be used by national training commissioners on their role at the national level. Eventually, some information, tools, and resources, may be relevant to rovers and rover leaders.

Rovers around Europe desperately need a place like the new Rovernet.eu! Rovers should get „out there“, into lively exchange of inspiring ideas and the true crossing of borders!
Such International events create enthusiasm in each and every participant and facilitator. It is the responsibility of each of them to make sure that such enthusiasm is spread within NSAs/NSOs.
Rovernet is a valuable opportunity for us to meet and discuss topics about Rovers and how we can improve our work and reach out to more young people across Europe. At our last RoverNet we had representatives from all across Europe, from north, south, east and west.
I had the opportunity to be updated about youth trends, to share ideas regarding how to improve National Rover Programmes, and to think about strategies for youth empowerment and involvement.
