Scouting is currently active in
211 countries and territories with a global membership
of over 28 million. Two thirds of the international
membership are in developing countries.
Scouting includes occasional international
opportunities including camps and projects, with the
aim of strengthening links between Scouts in the UK
and other members of The World Organisation of the Scout
Movement. Members of the District have attended world
events such as Moots and Jamborees abroad.
Today, Scouts across the world
are involved in development projects as diverse as peace
education, drug abuse prevention, clean water and sanitation,
literacy, renewable energies and environmental conservation.
