At a World Scout Jamboree, you don’t attend as an individual or group!<\/p>\n

Instead each country with a National Scouting Organization can apply to attend together as a\u00a0contingent<\/em>, which is responsible for forming a management team (CMT), and the registration of the youth (participants) and adults (IST and PULs) who will be attending the Jamboree.<\/p>\n

In fact… you can’t attend the Jamboree without belonging to a contingent!<\/p>\n

The Canadian Contingent has been formed as a partnership between Scouts du Canada and Scouts Canada!<\/p>\n

We represent both organizations, in both our Contingent Management Team and our attendance at the World Scout Jamboree. We’re committed to ensuring all members are treated equally, and that we provide our information and support in both official languages.<\/p>\n

The Contingent Management Team, known by the acronym CMT, is a group of volunteers appointed by Scouts Canada and Scouts du Canada who are responsible for the management of the contingent.<\/p>\n

International Service Team members, known by the acronym IST, or occasionally as Offer of Service at some events, are members of Scouting who will be at least 18 years of age at the time of the event.<\/p>\n

IST members may work on contingent tasks at the Jamboree, or be assigned to specific tasks at the Jamboree alongside IST members from other countries.<\/p>\n
