Quarter Report: Scout Experience: Ready for life

The project aims to impact a total of at least 1,500 youth and 1,000 parents from the Camino Verde, Mariano Matamoros, and Granjas Familiares neighborhoods of Tijuana during its three-year implementation. The project will provide dedicated support to adolescents and youth in the areas of character, education, and leadership. Character activities will focus on learning to be and learning to live together through the strengthening of various dimensions of the individual, as well as providing direct psychosocial support to adolescents and youth. Education activities will focus on learning to know and learning to do by using a "learning by doing" approach to math, language, and logic, and will develop skills in the areas of ecology, sports, humanities, communication, security, and technology. Education activities will provide dedicated support to adolescents and youth currently out-of-school, with low academic performance, learning disabilities, or in transition between primary and secondary or secondary and high school. Leadership activities will develop competencies related to social project management and use the learning through service approach to develop social leadership competencies, strengthen the sense of community, and promote dialogue and understanding among young people. Leadership activities will have a strong voluntary service component in the areas of peace, environment, and development, and will receive national and international scouts. All activities will use the Scout Method and the five programming principles of the United Nations as crosscutting practices. The project will put special emphasis on developing monitoring and evaluation systems that provide useful information for measuring social impact, strengthening organizational learning, and supporting decision-making processes. The Scout Experience: Ready for life project will build the capacity of local community members to become the actors of their own development. The Scout Center model will test a social intervention model that is scalable and replicable, setting national standards for the organization's work on character, education, and leadership among adolescents and youth in highly vulnerable environments.
