The catastrophe that hit the ' Abruzzo and Italy in recent days and that has caused countless deaths and physical and moral damage to the populations living in areas affected by the earthquake affects us as members of the same World Association Guides and Scouts and siblings.

We are aware of the rapid response teams of volunteers AGESCI and CNGEI that since yesterday are in place and are supporting assistance to affected populations, and we know how the Guides and the Scout Italians are always in the forefront in such situations of emergency .

Here we want to renew our support and offer assistance in the case where the anny useful, we would be happy to use the communication channels available to us to raise awareness and mobilize the solidarity of the European member organizations of WAGGGS.
