History[edit]
In 2007, as part of the centenary of Scouting, Nepal renamed Urkema Peak in the Himalayas to Baden-Powell Peak.[6]
Program[edit]
Programs focus on handicrafts, hiking, camping, nature conservation and community development. Service activities include adult literacy campaigns, food production, child vaccination and drug abuse education. Relief operations are mobilized during earthquakes, floods, landslides, fires and other natural disasters.
Activities[edit]
Scout activities are organized for both boys and girls jointly; but training, camping and other aspects of the program are conducted separately.
Under the national education system, university students pursuing the masters level are required to serve in a village for a year. These students are given an orientation that includes Scout training.
National jamborees[edit]
The first national jamboree of the Nepal Scouts was organized in 1987 at Kirtipur.
The second national jamboree was organized in 2013 at Tikauli of Chitwan District (after almost 26 years) and was themed Peace and Harmony.[citation needed].
The third national jamboree was held on March 21, 2018 at Kakani International Scouts Center, Nuwakot.[citation needed]
