Short contents:

Scouting is taking a leading role as active ambassadors to achieve the UN Global Goals in a framework called Scouts4SDGs. This call for action is embedded into our movement’s educational offer to its 50 million youth members worldwide. Scouts are standing up for the goals, starting from small individual actions to more collective approaches with their Scout group, to create a positive change in their communities.
