Kusafiri Naming Contest Result Announcement
We are thrilled to announce the results of the Kusafiri Naming Contest. After receiving many creative submissions from our talented members, we are delighted to share the new Chinese name for Kusafiri, the World Centre located in Africa: 庫颯遊居
This name was selected by our panel of judges for its ability to capture the essence of Kusafiri – a place of adventure, exploration, and global connection within the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS).
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all members who participated in this contest. Your engagement and innovative ideas have helped us find a name that truly represents the spirit of Kusafiri and its role in the global Guiding Movement.
The winning name was announced at the Let Us Share 2024 opening ceremony on 25 February 2024, where the awards were also presented to the top entries. We hope that this new Chinese name, 庫颯遊居, will help our local members feel a stronger connection to Kusafiri and inspire them to continue their journey of global exploration and cultural exchange through the WAGGGS World Centres. Thank you all for your continued support and enthusiasm for the Kusafiri Naming Contest. We look forward to seeing how this new name will be embraced by our members and the wider Guiding community.
