All you need to do, is participate in a
recognised international activity and complete two of the following:
-
a minimum of four hours service
-
a minimum of one night's camping
-
a minimum of one days training
or attend at least three meetings (minimum of
three hours) to successfully qualify for the award. When you return to
Australia, you need to complete at least three presentations to either
scouting or other community groups. this could be in the form of written
articles with photographs or talks and speeches made in front of your section,
district, region or branch.
When you have completed all the requirements
listed above, then obtain an application to receive the award from your Branch
Headquarters. Fill in the application and send it off so that the Branch
International Commissioner may sign all of the paperwork and you can be
presented with your award.
Scouting is a worldwide organisation with over
26 million members comprising young people, adults (both male and female) in
217 countries and territories. This award recognises those who participate in
Jamborees, Ventures, Moots, Conferences, Service Projects, Agoonarees and
Camporees overseas. Perhaps when you have been to one of these events as part
of your award you might like to write an article and submit it with photos to
the NSW SIFT Webmaster PO Box 115 Haberfield
NSW 2045 Australia or email to [email protected]
When it is published, you will have started on
your way to making one of your three presentations. Good luck and we look
forward to hearing about many awards presented throughout Australia for the
International Explorer's Award.
