Candidate for the European Scout Committee 2025

Empowering young people through inclusion, innovation, and safety.
“Scouting gave me strong values and a voice. Now, I want to amplify the voices of young people across Europe.”
Hello! I’m Ulkar.
I’m a lifelong Scout from Azerbaijan with over 15 years of experience in local, national, and international Scouting.
I’ve worked as a youth leader, board member, Safe from Harm consultant, and a passionate advocate for inclusive, creative, and meaningful education.
From small villages to global arenas, I’ve seen what Scouting can do when we put young people first — and now, I want to bring that energy to the European Scout Committee.
