Explorer Scouts can now complete their Rights Challenge Badge meaning every child in Scouts Scotland can learn about, understand, and demonstrate their knowledge about human rights.
The Rights Challenge Badge – created by the Children and Young People’s Commissioner Scotland and Scouts Scotland – is already offered to Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs, and Scouts.
Explorers – who are aged between 14 and 18 – can do a range of activities to earn the badge. These include creating a communications project around human rights, campaigning for a change in their community, and learning and sharing information about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
