What is IMWe?

The 4 pillars of IMWe

Internationality

IMWe is an INTERNATIONAL scout event. Every year there are about 60-100 scouts from all over Europe and the world at the creative week.

Creativity

The IMWe programme is designed to get the most out of the participants. The programme points make every single person to be creative and participate in a "playing" manner. There is no pressure, no time concerns or what so ever. Creativity is one main pillar, that can focus on many different areas. E.g. handycrafts, theatre, music, games, performance, concerts, etc.

Scouting

IMWe is part of VCP (Verband Christlicher Pfadfinder - Germany). It is a scout event, where - like at all other scout camps - people get together from different cultures and have one common vision: SCOUTING.

Friendship

Every year, lots of ever lasting friendships are made. See for yourself, how people meet and what events they do together, even after year of meeting at IMWe. (Go to IMWeb Networking)
