The Jamboree Game “Bravely” is an educational and team-building activity developed by young Scouts to support the aims and spirit of the World Scout Jamboree. At its core, the game focuses on the idea of self-balance — learning how to maintain harmony between different aspects of life such as education, work, friendships, family, passions, and social engagement. Through play, participants explore how balance contributes to personal well-being and a fulfilling Scouting journey.

Rooted in the Symbolic Framework of the 26th World Scout Jamboree, “Bravely” promotes learning through experience, encouraging personal growth, cooperation, and intercultural understanding. It was designed by a youth-led team — six of the eight authors are Polish rovers under 19 years old — demonstrating the power of youth initiative and creativity in Scouting.

The first edition of the Jamboree Game “Bravely” is available for free in our online store to be ordered by Contingents (the buyer covers only shipping costs) while stock last. The game has five language versions (English, French, Spanish, Arabic, and Polish) in a single box.
