Scouting in Humanitarian Settings - Action Kit

Library Item

All young people should have access to formal and non-formal education and part of Scouting's mission is to contribute to the development of young people.

As a complement of the Scouting in Humanitarian Settings Manual, WOSM has developed a simple and engaging Action Kit that can be used to introduce Scouting to young people in Humanitarian Settings. These are fun and educational activities that can be adapted to different contexts and remain culturally sensitive.

Scouting in Humanitarian Settings - Manual

Library Item

As the mission of Scouting is to contribute to the development of young people, National Scout Organisations (NSOs) that choose to engage in Humanitarian Action should adapt the Scout programme to the particular needs of young people in humanitarian settings; further, they should work with other partners pursuing non-formal or formal educational objectives in those settings. The programme should be flexible enough to be implemented under different contexts.

WOSM Guidelines for Organising Sustainable Events

Library Item

Scouts around the world regularly take part in events on a local, national, regional, and world scale. These events offer opportunities for learning, creating long-lasting friendships, and, in the case of international events, discovering new cultures and traditions.

Events, regardless of their size, have a social, economic, and environmental impact on the community in which the event takes place. A sustainable event takes these elements into account and aims at minimising the negative impact, while also working towards increasing the positive one.
