BartHumphries Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 So, anyone have any recommendations to make Citizenship in the World not be boring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortridge Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 >> Attend a model United Nations program, either put on within the troop/patrol or the ones put on by the YMCA. >> Connect online with members of a Scout troop across the globe and learn about Scouting and life there. >> If you're close to a major metro area, visit and tour the local consulate of a foreign country. >> With parental permission, fill out a passport application and apply for a passport. >> Plan a patrol backpacking trip in another country. Figure out transportation, costs, supplies, border issues, medical precautions, language barriers, currency exchanges, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaoman45 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Adding to shortridge's idea, maybe touring an ethnic community like Chinatown or whatever could be useful. Learn about customs, talk with people who lived in different countries to see what it was like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
