Ulkar Khanlarova – Mutascu

Candidate for Voting Member of the European Scout Committee
How can the Scout Movement impact a young woman from a remote region like Gubadli, Azerbaijan? Having nearly 15 years of experience as a teacher and Scout volunteer, I have successfully bridged formal and non-formal education, creating a more effective plan for my work. Scouting gave me strong values and a new perspective: how do I positively impact the lives I touch through education? My deep understanding of education, mentorship, and capacity building has been shaped through my extensive involvement in Scouting, fuelling my passion and inspiration for youth empowerment. From Head of the Organising Team, PR Manager, and board member in ASA to representing my organisation at the international level as Head of Department and International Commissioner, I have gained valuable leadership, event planning, and my executive roles with ASA for six years and NAYORA for three years supported my background in organisational development in decision-making in country level, which allowed me to spread out values I have gained. Working with WOSM’s Purple Team as a Safe from Harm and Youth Programme Consultant further reinforced my dedication to advancing safety, inclusiveness, and innovation within the Movement. As a trainer, I have led initiatives on Safe from Harm, Sustainable Development Goals, and mental well-being programmes, equipping youth with essential life skills. I am excited to bring my vision and passion for innovative education, promoting diversity and inclusion, and prioritising safety to the Committee. This candidacy is my commitment to serve, shaping policies and strategies that empower Scouts and leaders across the Region to reach their fullest potential.
