Scouting is the largest youth development organisation in Australia and the world, and is a leader in this country's non-formal education sector.

The Scouting Program delivered by Scouts Australia, prepares young people aged from 6 to 26 years for business and community leadership. There are currently around 60,000 members in Australia - boys, girls, young men and women, and their leaders.

Scouts Australia's aim is to help young people achieve their full potential in life. This is done through individualised, fun, adventurous, challenging, leadership and teamwork-oriented programs. 'Be Prepared', the well known slogan for Scouts, sums up the essence of what Scouting aims to teach young people.

With an emphasis on peace, education and understanding, Scouting transcends all cultures, religions, races, politics, age and gender barriers. Tens of thousands of young people from around the globe meet every four years at World Jamborees to have fun and exchange knowledge and foster understanding. Every day, hundreds of thousands of projects that benefit local communities are conducted by Scouts as they strive to improve the world.

The aim of Scouting worldwide can be described as 'educating young people to play a constructive role in society and to create a better world'.
