CHAPTER I 1. World Adult Resources Policy: Recognising the needs for an overall policy for adults at all levels and in all functions in Scouting, and having adopted the principles of “Adults in Scouting” as applying to all adult resources in the Scout Movement, on the recommendations of the World Training Committee, the World Scout Conference in its meeting held at Bangkok in 1993, approved the World Adult Resources Policy. Accordingly the policies and procedures on Adult Leader Training as established by previous resolutions have not been modified by the adoption of the provisions of the World Adult Resources Policy. This policy encourages the National Scout Organisations to pay greater attention towards adults and workout strategies right from Acquisition, Assessment of needs, Recruitment, Mutual agreement, Appointment, Integration, Training, Recognition, and to the stage of Re-appointment or Retirement. 2. Training of Adult Leaders: The Training of adults in the Scout Wing of the Bharat Scouts & Guides will be under the general guidance of the Chief National Commissioner and under the direction of the National Commissioner (Scouts). The Dy. Director of Scouts (Leader Training) will be responsible for the training of Adult Leaders of Scout Wing throughout the Indian Union. The State Chief Commissioners, State Commissioners of Scout and the State Training Commissioners (S) will be responsible for the adult training in their respective States.
