gained in Scouting lay a solid groundwork for long-term assistance in a variety of contexts, from rapid-onset disasters to protracted emergencies and, as active citizens and trusted members of the communities they serve, Scouts can provide critical support to help children navigate their emotions, fears, and anxieties.<\/p>\n<p>When the deadly <strong>earthquake struck in central T\u00fcrkiye and northern Syria<\/strong> in February 2023, thousands of Scouts mobilised immediately, assisting with search and rescue and mass-scale logistics, providing support for traumatised children and their families, and serving their local communities with enormous compassion. In total, <strong>10,000 Scouts in T\u00fcrkiye and 6,000 Scouts in Syria<\/strong> volunteered during the initial relief efforts and longer-term initiatives that lasted throughout 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Our global community of BP Fellows, Scouts and other supporters came together in solidarity, generously donating to an emergency appeal to sustain and amplify Scout actions on the ground, and thanks to your support, Scouts have continued to provide emotional support, counselling, and cultural integration activities to help children cope with the lasting trauma associated with the earthquake. At the end of 2023, local Scouts in Damascus, Syria, were establishing a <strong>permanent centre<\/strong> specialising in the training of trainers to respond to natural and humanitarian disasters.
