The Mission of Scouting is to contribute to the education of young people, through a
value system based on the Scout Promise and Law, to help build a better world where
people are self-fulfilled as individuals and play a constructive role in society.

person assisting them to establish a value system based upon spiritual, social and

training, based on the Scout Promise and Law. In practice the method is best seen

A Scout is loyal
A Scout makes friends, establishes and maintains harmonious relations
