World Scouting
The Scout Movement is a non-partisan movement of active volunteers in a global network of local groups that belong to National Scout Organizations in 161 countries. The World Organization of the Scout Movement is an independent, non-profit organization at the service of the Scout Movement, composed of national organizations. It has had consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council since 1947. It is recognised by the majority of UN agencies and governments and works in collaboration with other agents in the world of education and civil society.
The World Scout Bureau
The World Scout Bureau is the Organization’s secretariat, which has its headquarters in Geneva and offices in six regions: Africa (Nairobi), Arab (Cairo), Asia-Pacific (Manila), Eurasia (Kiev), Europe (Geneva and Brussels) and Interamerica (Panama City).
World Scouting is mainly financed by fees from National Scout Organizations, based on their membership and adjusted according to each country’s per capita income. Other resources come from active collaboration with foundations, corporations, agencies and individual donors. Significant support is received from the World Scout Foundation.
The World Scout Foundation
The World Scout Foundation actively solicits and receives contributions which are invested in a capital (endowment) fund in order to produce a regular income that can benefit World Scouting. The Honorary Chairman of the Foundation is His Majesty the King of Sweden. The World Baden-Powell Fellowship is composed of individual and corporate donors who are committed to supporting the development of Scouting worldwide.
Challenges, adventure, friendship
The Scout Movement was founded by Lord Robert Baden-Powell in 1907.For over one hundred years it has contributed to building a better world through the personal commitment of hundred of millions of women and men.

A VISION
Creating a better world A MISSION
Educating young people to play a constructive role in society
TAKING ACTION AT LOCAL LEVEL
- Agriculture and food production
- Emergency and humanitarian aid
- Clean drinking water
- Literacy
- Renewable energies
- Street children
- The acquisition of life skills
- Professional training
- Sanitation
- Integration of people with disabilities
- Fighting against child labour
- Support for migrants and indigenous communities
- Prevention and fight against AIDS
- Drug prevention
- Family violence prevention
- Child protection
- Rehabilitation of child soldiers
- Child and adolescent health
As the NGO community takes action to support the recognition of a global cause, the entire Scout Movement could take action on a specific day to a specific cause, thus affirming its unity, global nature, ability to take action locally, and the universal nature of its values. Some of the important issues that Scouting deals with at a local level are:
GLOBAL ADVOCACY
- Understanding the effects of globalisation
- Sustainable development
- Cultural diversity
- The rights of children and young people
- Youth employability
- Responsible governance
- The fight against racism
- The fight against social exclusion
- Equal opportunities for men and women
- Youth involvement and youth citizenship
- Youth policies
- The promotion of non-formal education
- The promotion of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals
- Protection of the environment
