EQ in Action Challenge

As part of the LifeLeaders Initiative, the EQ in Action Challenge Pack empowers Scouts aged seven and above to strengthen essential social and emotional skills. This challenge supports young people in developing social skills, self-awareness, self-regulation, empathetic leadership, decision-making, and the ability to assess community needs. While the actions they take may begin small and local, the knowledge and habits they develop can have a positive impact on many lives.

The pack promotes active citizenship, inspiring young people and their communities to engage, contribute, and create meaningful change. By completing this challenge, Scouts earn the EQ in Action badge and take an important step toward becoming LifeLeaders. Adults will find a selection of activities designed to support young people throughout the Challenge, whether through individual tasks or peer-to-peer learning, while also gaining new skills themselves.
