Focus - Focus of the activities

The focus of Venturer Scouts activities is to provide young people aged 15-18 an opportunity to challenge themselves, test their boundaries and discover their potential. These Scouts differ from Explorers in that they typically take on more difficult projects, focusing on advanced skills and taking on larger team initiatives. Projects often are more challenging and often more physically demanding. Through these experiences, Venture Scouts learn how to be resourceful and resilient, how to work in teams and how to plan, organize and execute complex tasks. Ventures Scouts activities are also about developing good citizenship and community engagement, providing an opportunity for young people to become active and engaged citizens in the world.
