Guiding is a global, autonomous, independent organization of a pedagogical nature, aimed at children and young people, with 10.000.000 members all over the world. In 1932, Irini Kalliga, together with a group of young women, founded Greek Guiding Association, with the aim of utilizing the free time of children and young people in self-governed groups, with modern methods of education and creative activities. Part of the charm of Guiding is volunteering, which means responsibility, unbound open-mindedness, and commitment to the goal.
