The Scouting Principles (as approved by the World Organization of the Scout Movement [WOSM])

The purpose of the Scouting movement is to contribute to the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, social, and spiritual potentials as individuals, as responsible citizens and as members of their local, national and international communities.
Principles are fundamental laws and beliefs which must be observed when achieving the purpose. A code of conduct which characterizes all members of the movement. Scouting is based upon three broad principles which represent its fundamental laws and beliefs. They are referred to as:

• Duty to God
  Adherence to spiritual principles, loyalty to the religion that express them and acceptance of the duties resulting there from.

• Duty to Others
  Participation in the development of society, with recognition and respect for the dignity of one�s fellowman and for the integrity of the natural world. Loyalty to one�s country in harmony with the promotion of local, national and international peace, understanding and cooperation.

• Duty to Self
  Responsibility for the development of oneself. Loyalty to ones principles.
