The program emphasis is on community service. Financial assistance from other Scout Associations has helped in the creation of a vocational training center for boys and girls who are taught woodwork, electricity, carpentry, dressmaking and other useful skills.
There are other important programs which include expanding Scouting in schools, conservation training and tree planting.
Scouts participate in community service and have been trained to assist in natural disasters.
