What is the IST Volunteer Roles Catalog?

The IST Volunteer Roles Catalog provides a comprehensive overview of volunteering opportunities across every single department of the World Scout Jamboree 2027. Inside, you will find detailed breakdowns of:

  • Specific volunteer responsibilities
  • Working conditions on-site and off-site
  • Required skills and qualifications
Why “Roles” and Not “Jobs”?

The planning team purposefully uses the word “role” rather than “job”. This choice directly reflects the core volunteer spirit of the International Service Team—emphasizing collaboration, selfless service, and a shared mission to support young people in creating an unforgettable experience.

Key Features: How to Find Your Perfect Role

Finding the ideal position among hundreds of options can feel overwhelming, but the digital platform makes it easy to filter and search for your match:

  • Smart Pictograms & Icons: Each role lists visual tags that indicate specific working conditions. At a glance, you can see whether a role primarily involves outdoor activitydirect participant interactionheavy physical activitymostly seated work, or wheelchair accessibility.
  • Advanced Filtering Options: Narrow down your choices by filtering roles by specific departments or your preferred work environments.
  • Code Search & List View: Know what you are looking for? You can search directly by role codes or switch to a simplified “list view” to see titles grouped neatly by department.
How to Access the Selection Process

While the catalog is currently open for information and browsing, the official application and selection process follows a structured timeline:

  • Contingent Registration: To access the role selection, you must be a registered IST member whose personal data has been submitted by your National Scout Organization’s (NSO) Contingent into the official system. Unregistered individuals will not be able to apply for roles.
  • Rosterfy Account Creation: The submitted data will be used to generate your individual account on the Rosterfy volunteer management and e-learning platform. Crucial Note: Every adult volunteer must have a unique, individual email address registered to access this platform.
