19th Nippon Scout Jamboree
Challenge! A step into the future from Jinseki Kogen
挑戦 ～神石から未来への一歩～
It is with great pleasure to announce the Australian Contingent has been approved to commence planning for the 19th Nippon Scout Jamboree (19NSJ). The Japanese National Jamboree is held once every 3-5 years, and this is the first face to face National Jamboree for Japan after the COVID. The 19NSJ is expecting a total of 8000 Scouts, Venturer Scouts, and Leaders from all over Japan and abroad!
The 19NSJ is a great opportunity for Scouts and Venturer Scouts to extend their Scouting network overseas while uplifting your Scouting skills and knowledge with Scouts from the land of the rising sun.
The Scouts Australia team is currently working with the Scouts Association of Japan on finer details of this experience.
More information will be shared as we progress our journey. Please stay tuned!
