The Girl Scouts Global Action Award, developed in partnership with the WAGGGS, is an exciting and enriching way for any Girl Scout to participate in realizing the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals which aim to reduce extreme poverty and impact major world concerns. By earning this award, girls can learn, in a fun and educational way, about serious global issues affecting girls, young women, and their communities. Each Girl Scout who completes activities will join in WAGGGS’ international movement of 10 million girls who together are sowing the seeds of social change. The Global Action award offers girls an opportunity to advocate for themselves and others, both locally and globally!
The Global Action Award is an official award that is worn on the front of the vest/sash. Girls can earn the Global Action Award every year by completing at least one of the activities for their grade level.
The activities for each grade level and more information about the award are found on GSUSA’s website.
