World Thinking Day
World Thinking Day is celebrated annually on February 22 by Girl Guides and Girl Scouts worldwide. It is a day when scouts and guides think about their "sisters" in all the countries of the world, the meaning of Scouting, and its global impact.
Most recently, World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) has selected an important international issue as the theme for each year's World Thinking Day, and selected a focus country from each of their five world regions. Girl Guides and Girl Scouts use these as an opportunity to study and appreciate other countries and cultures, and equally increase awareness and sensitivity on global concerns. (Wikipedia)
