Safe from Harm

Welcome to the web based training Safe from Harm.

Our vision is to have a World Scout Jamboree free from abuse or harassment of or between young people and adults. The goal is that every leader and member of the International Service Team (IST) will know how to react if they come across abuse or tendencies of abuse. Protection of young people is the responsibility of each and every adult at the Jamboree. All adults have to be aware that abuse can take place, be able to recognize it and to take appropriate action.

The course should take about an hour and a half to complete. It consists of 10 modules, you do the modules in the order of your choice. They will equip you with skills and knowledge on handling various situations at the Jamboree, where you can act to prevent and/or report abuse. The course is available in Arabic, English, French, Russian and Spanish.
