I think leaders should be confident enough to take challenges and make it happen. Leader should have that confidence to control his or her subordinates and go ahead. So the confidence is a main challenge for youngsters when they are taking leadership. If your confident level is low your competitor will see it as a weakness of yours. So in perspective confidence is a challenge for development of young people's leadership competency.

Also a confidence gap, young people looking up to those more experienced and not viewing themselves as equal.

Assuming that with age comes experience that make your voice more valuable, that a less experienced person's opinion less valuable and authoritative.

Young people have unique points of views and perspectives. We need to be better at recognizing the value of these perspectives, amongst the youth and seniors.

Need for safe spaces for young people to grow and use their voices, recognize their value and contribute to the movement. These roles should be included in overall work, with young people working side by side with seniors.

Youth and seniors need to work together, compromise and build on each other's experience. Work together, inter-generational dialogue is the solution.

Losing members during Pandemic. Many leaders are not familiar with the needed technology for online scouting, or do not have access, due to financial reasons or lack of infrastructure for wifi. Not enough resources or knowledge to make good programme.

Scouting happening on group level, not enough to have resourceful people on national level.

Technical/digital training needs to be provided, also to local leaders. WOSM can train trainers.

Also lack of ideas of how to have a good programme, not used to doing so and few traditions to draw on.

Some organisations grew, when they shifted very fast to good online programme.

WOSM needs to help make this possible for all NSOs, provide (more) good online activities easily used by local groups. We need to have a good place/library/hub for best practices and ideas, easy to add and VERY easy to find.
