The AGGL was among the founder members of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) in 1928. In 1960, the membership was transferred to the Bureau de Liaison des Associations Guides du Luxembourg, formed by the AGGL and the Lëtzebuerger Guiden (since 1994 Lëtzebuerger Guiden a Scouten).
