Rights Challenge Badge
Understanding your rights is so important. That’s why we teamed up with the Children and Young People’s Commissioner Scotland to create the Rights Challenge Badge.
The badge features a range of activities and resources to empower young people and their leaders to learn about and understand their rights. It also highlights the incorporation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) into Scots law.
If your Section completes the badge we’d love to hear about it! Just tag us in your Rights Challenge Badge posts on social media and use the hashtag #RightsBadge.
About the badge
We held a competition, allowing youth members of all ages to come up with a creative design that would be used on the badge. The final design was created by Christopher, a Scout from Clyde Region.
Christopher said: “My design put the Human Rights logo at the centre of the badge, as it is already a recognised symbol. Like every Scout badge, my design has the Fleur de Lis on it. I also chose to put a map of the world in the background, because children from across the world should all have rights.”
