The Scouts of the World Award (SWA) is an initiative to help National Scout Organisations revitalise the programme of Senior Sections (15-26 age range) by giving young people more opportunities to face the challenges of the future as identified by the Millennium Declaration unanimously adopted by the 189 member countries of the United Nations in 2000.
Griffin Scout Leader, Tan Sijie is the SWA coordinator for the SWA Base in Singapore. Ever since he started serving as the SWA Secretary during his term in the 1st National Rover Council in 2006, he has been contributing to the growth of the programme.
Most recently, he had just concluded the 3rd Scouts of the World Discovery Workshop, which saw the attendance of 3 Singapore , 3 Thailand and 1 Malaysian Rovers, making it the first international SWA workshop.
