The [[Scouting]] programme became an international success following its founding by [[Robert Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell|Baden-Powell]] in 1907. With is continuing growth, the founder of the movement saw a need for a gathering of representatives of Scouting from all around the world. The general aim was to foster a worldwide brotherhood, and to help the young boys in the movement learn about other peoples and nations by direct interaction with them.

There are up to ten smaller Jamboree (or Jamborette) events held each year around the world. This includes [[World Organization of the Scout Movement#World Scout Bureau|Regional]] Jamborees, which are held every three years in their areas of the world. Scouts from outside these regions are invited, but attendance is generally lower (for example, the [[WOSM-European Region#EuroJam 2005|EuroJam 2005]] event hosted 10,000 Scouts, mostly from Europe).

[[Amateur radio operator]]s from all over the world participate with Scouts and Guides to teach them about radio and to assist them to contact their fellow Scouts and Guides by means of [[shortwave]] radio and IRC. This provides the Scouts and Guides with a means of learning about fellow Scouts and Guides from around the world. It is an adjunct to the World Scout Jamboree.
