Asociación Scouts de Colombia

Asociación Scouts de Colombia is the national Scout organization in Colombia. Founded in 1917, it was accepted into the World Organization of the Scout Movement in 1933. The movement is coeducational, accepting both boys and girls. Asociación Scouts de Colombia has 12,684 members as of 2021 (reported by WOSM) and 15,000 members as of 2023 (reported by ASC).

Scouting first appeared in Colombia in 1913, introduced by Miguel Jimenez, who was living in England at the time. He returned to Colombia and brought Scouting back with him.

Outdoor activities and community service are important parts of the Scout program in Colombia. Scouts participate in national festivals and holidays. They help in sports events, disaster relief and first aid situations. There is also a strong emphasis on conservation and ecology.
