EDUCATION FOR LIFE

Scouting complements the school and the family, filling needs not met by either. Scouting develops self-knowledge, the need to explore, to discover, to want to know.

Scouts discover the world beyond the classroom, tapping the skills of others to learn, and passing that knowledge on to others.

INTERNATIONAL

There are recognized Scout organizations and branches in more than 216 countries and territories.

GROWING

Scouting has never stopped growing since its founding in 1907. Today there are more than 25 million members – boys and girls. Scouting has doubled its membership in the last 20 years. Much of the growth is in developing countries.

OPEN TO ALL
