Invitation of our Regional Director, Interamerican Scout RegionDear sisters and brothers in scouting:

Peru will be the place where we will meet again for the magical experience of the III Interamerican Scout Moot. The mythical area of Cusco will be the place where we can share together the joy of being part of the great World Scout Brotherhood, looking together at the great challenges that we are willing to overcome, looking fixedly at achieving the goal that our 2023 vision has set: 100 million Scouts.

There could be no better place than Cusco to renew our commitment to Creating a Better World. A place rich in traditions and culture, will allow young people from Interamerica to gather in the Moot to learn about the Inca culture and also to show their own. It will be the space for coexistence and friendship.

The time progresses slowly but decidedly to meet us all there, start preparing your backpack, put in much scout spirit, high doses of joy to live and leave space to keep many pleasant memories.

Moot in Peru is waiting to receive us with open arms!

Symbolic FrameworkThe III Interamerican Scout Moot educative proposal is based on the development of the Inca Empire.

Inca Empire was the more extense in Pre-Columbian America’s history. The territory was named Tahuantinsuyo (from Quechua “the four regions or divisions: Chinchaysuyo, Collasuyo, Contisuyo and Antisuyo”), grew in the Andean zone of the continent between 15th and 16th century, as result of the Inca civilization. Was near 2 millions of square kilometers from Pacific Ocean to the Amazon rain forest.

The Twelve Angle Stone is considered by many as the most representative figure of the perfection achieved in Inca architecture. We use its silhouette in the logo as a symbol of that greatness and solidity it represents for our culture.

The Inca constructions lack elaborate decorations. The carving, sculpture, high or low reliefs were not used in an excessive or decorative way. The stones, which were very large, helped to make the constructions also large, so you can find several sites in the city of Cusco with gigantic stone monuments.
