   What is AIN? |
Avon International Scout Network was set up to promote and support International programme, events and activities in Avon. This might include any number of the following:
Expeditions
Exchanges
International element of the balanced programme
Queen's Scout Award
Duke of Edinburgh's award
International Friendship Group Award
Community action, international development and service projects
Partnership projects
Other activities of an International nature involving Network members
Camp staff programmes
Research projects abroad
Avon International Scout Network does this by:
acting as an umbrella to 'join-up' Scout Network members taking part in international Scouting
providing advice from project approval to completion - coming up with an idea, planning, management, finances, fundraising, communication, risk assessment, training and preparation, first aid, insurance etc.
help with accessing resources and equipment to carry out international Scouting
support with accessing external funds
collective fundraising opportunities
a pool of young people wishing to be involved in international Scouting
promotion of projects, activity, programme and events run for and by Network members
online information, advice, support and community
occasional meetings to network, share ideas and good practice
encouraging more people to join Scout Network and take part in such activities.
The Network is run on the basis that Network is a Section for the members run by the members. The best form of support is from our peers. A great deal of knowledge, expertise and experience exists in this area and this is a great way to tap into it.
