Scout Method
The Scout Method is an essential and unique system for progressive self-education. It applies various elements that support Scouting’s purpose and principles, and creates a cohesive and balanced system for young people to experience the true potential of Scouting in a safe environment. By empowering young people to become active citizens, they will gain lifelong learning and skills based on shared values, education, fun, and enjoyment.
“Scouting is a medicine composed of various ingredients and, unless they are mixed in their proper proportions according to the prescription, the users must not blame the doctor if the effects on the patient are unsatisfactory.”
Robert Baden-Powell
Founder of the Scout Movement
