We have specialist units to support you in achieving the Safe from Harm goal during the following periods:
Before the Jamboree
- Issue codes of conduct for adults and participants to set basic standards of behaviour. Everyone coming to the Jamboree must agree to comply with them.
- Provide compulsory e-learning for all adult attendees. This will be additional to any Safe from Harm/safeguarding training delivered by your home Scout organisation.
- Provide a participant Safe from Harm learning experience to contingents. This will be delivered by adult Unit/Patrol Leaders as part of preparation for the Jamboree.
- Provide simple “Do’s and Don’ts”, similar to the conduct cards used by some Scout organisations.
- Set up an Access & Inclusion User Forum to advise on achieving the best standards of accessibility and inclusion.
- Maintain a Safe from Harm reporting system in case pre-event incidents occur that need the involvement of the Jamboree team and WOSM.
At the World Scout Jamboree
- Run a Listening Ear service in stations around the Jamboree site where people can seek help, report Safe from Harm incidents, or take a few minutes break from the hustle and bustle of the Jamboree. The Listening Ears will work closely with the mental health services provided by the Health & Medical Department and the host city, and with the Safe from Harm Operations Unit.
- Offer Listening Ear and Safe from Harm support at main arrival points and the Welcome Centre.
- Run a Safe from Harm Operations Unit to manage incidents that require investigation and action. It will work with the police and other local services when necessary.
- Run an Access & Inclusion troubleshooting team to help solve problems if they occur during the event.
