Our Initiatives
This flagship project of the Asia-Pacific Support Centre sees street children guided and mentored by trained volunteer Scout leaders, inspiring them to learn teamwork and leadership skills, and assimilate the values of Scouting: “Duty to others” and “Duty to self”.
The Tide Turners Plastic Challenge encourages young people to fight plastic waste at home and in their communities, and make our environment healthier by understanding how plastic consumption impacts our world.
This Challenge recognises projects that are making Scouting a Movement that values diversity and is inclusive and open to all. It reinforces our goal of making Scouting reflective of the societies where it exists and promoting a common understanding of diversity and inclusion.
