Adult volunteers are the backbone of the Scout movement. Their dedication and commitment enables millions of young people worldwide to experience Scouting and play a constructive role in their communities.

Ensuring the adequate recruitment, development, and next steps — known as the Adults in Scouting lifecycle — supports the quality of Youth Programmes and other critical areas for National Scout Organizations. The Adults in Scouting service and WOSM consultants can help improve the management of volunteers, and develop teams, mechanisms, and processes to reach any Adults in Scouting goal.
