A Strategy for Scouting: Strategic Priority 2 - Adolescents

This strategic priority aims at supporting National Scout Organizations (NSOs) in responding effectively to the needs and expectations of adolescents. This will result in an increase in membership in this age-range and enhance Scouting's reputation as an organization which helps young people in their transition to adulthood.

PowerPoint Presentation on Adolescents

This presentation provides more detailed information on 'Adolescents', an overview of the situation in Scout associations in July 2002 and in a separate presentation an example of work being undertaken on this strategic priority in CNE Portugal.

A Strategy for Scouting - Zusammenfassung auf dieser Site
 

scouts of the world

During the last twenty years, many successful efforts have been made to integrate development education, international solidarity and peace education into the Scout programme, as well as to reinforce the environmental dimension of Scouting.

In the years to come, Scouting’s credibility as a non-formal educational movement will depend on its capacity to bring forth from its ranks tens of thousands of young men and women who have the knowledge, skills and motivation to take an active part in bringing about social change at local, national and international level, in order to create a more open, just and peaceful society.

The Scouts of the World programme has been designed with this in mind. It is inspired by the “Culture of Peace” programme adopted by the United Nations and co-ordinated by UNESCO. It aims to help national Scout associations enrich the programmes of their senior age sections by opening up new fields of action and genuine responsibility to young people, through partnerships with all the other actors in civil society.

The Scouts of the World Award is an initiative to help National Scout Organisations revitalise the programme of Senior Sections (15-26 age range) by giving young people more opportunities to face the challenges of the future as identified by the Millennium Declaration unanimously adopted by the 189 member countries of the United Nations in 2000:

• Peace, security and disarmament;
• Development and the eradication of poverty;
• The protection of our common environment.

It is proposed to young people from 15 to 26 years old, Scouts (Senior-Scouts and Rover sections) or non-Scouts, willing to contribute to make the world a better place. It should help to improve the programme of the senior sections (over 15). This is why National Scout Organisations are invited to integrate the Scouts of the World Award within the programme of their Senior-Scout or Rover sections.

The Scouts of the World Award has been developed in the framework of the Strategic priorities “Youth Involvement” and “Adolescents” approved by the World Scout Conference in Thessaloniki 2002.

This document gives guidelines on how NSO’s can implement the Scouts of the World Award, as an element of their Senior Section programme, and open it to all young people, members or not of the Scout Movement.

This Guidelines comprises a number of very simple and concrete sections covering the following topics:

1. Introduction
2. Scouts of the World in brief

10. The SW Discovery
