Each year on February 22, Girl Scouts and Girl Guides come together to celebrate international friendship through activities and projects around an annual global theme. We’re celebrating 100 years of World Thinking Day in 2026—what an exciting birthday!

The 2026 World Thinking Day special theme is “Our Friendship." In this year’s activities, we invite Girl Scouts of all levels to join us as we explore our worldwide Girl Scout/Girl Guide community and celebrate the friendships that connect us all around the globe.

The World Thinking Day award is an official award and therefore it may be worn on the front of the official uniform sash or vest and placed where other earned badges are worn.
