Youth Leadership Training Course
The project was driven by a push to involve young people meaningfully in leadership and governance and to grow the Scout movement in the Maldives.
The Scout Association of Maldives and Majeediyya Scout Group held the country’s first Youth Leadership Training Course from 4 to 8 August at the Youth Hub in Malé, hosted by the First Malé Scout Group. Fifty young people aged 17 to 25, both scouts and non-scouts, took part in training focused on leadership, teamwork, communication and ethical decision-making, preparing them to engage in the organisation’s decision-making structures.
The course showed that there is strong interest among young Maldivians in leadership and decision-making training.
