What is Safe from Harm?

Safe from Harm is the highest priority for the Scout Movement.

We believe it is our responsibility to help create a safe and inclusive environment everyone in Scouting, and enable the self-development of young people through positive and healthy interpersonal relationships.

Over the years, we have made significant efforts to strengthen safeguarding for children, youth adults involved in Scouting across the Scout Movement, and are actively working to support National Scout Organizations to meet the Safe from Harm requirements for WOSM membership by developing and implementing policies,

programmes and practices benchmarked against international standards for child and youth safety.

As members of WOSM, National Scout Organizations must take all necessary steps to ensure the safety of young people and adults through a holistic approach implemented across organisational structures and educational programmes.

Here is some of the key support and resources available to help make Safe from Harm a reality for all.
