Global Challenge
Cub Scouts should complete four (4) of the following:
- Find out about the traditions, culture, food, religion and other interesting things of a country. Write about it.
- Find out about the work of an international charity that helps around the world, e.g., OXFAM, UNICEF. Present their findings to the rest of the Pack.
- Find out about an aspect of International Scouting. They could take part in a ‘Join In Jamboree’ activity, or arrange a visit from a Jamboree participant. Or, they could find out about Scouting in a country of their choice. Write about it.
- Find out about things that can be recycled or how energy can be saved. Over a period of weeks show how they have recycled or saved energy at home.
- Find out about a global issue such as poverty, conservation or water and sanitation and what they can do to help. Write about it.
- Find out about a technology of their choice. This could be a personal computer, a car engine, an aircraft or similar activity. They should understand the basic functions of the technology and how it is used and a brief history. They should then present your findings to the rest of the Pack.
