WORLD ASSOCIATION OF GIRL GUIDES AND GIRL SCOUTS
VOTING PACK
INTRODUCTION
As we shared with you in April 2020 (World Conference Circular 6a), due to the postponement of World Conference, two items of time-sensitive World Conference business will be conducted
by written resolution:
• Firstly, to ensure that the World Board has a clear mandate, Full Member Organisations are asked to approve a one-year plan and budget for WAGGGS for 2021. Approval of this 2021 plan and budget provides what is needed in the short-term, until World Conference in 2021 when Member Organisations will be asked to approve the full triennial strategy and budget up to the end of 2023.
• Secondly, to recognise the hard work and accomplishments of our new Potential and Associate Members, Full Member Organisations are be asked to approve the membership proposals as circulated in World Conference Document 10.
We are pleased to now share with you this voting pack which contains all the information you need to participate in the written resolution process.
