Scouterna - the Guides and Scouts of Sweden (Swedish for ''Scouts'') is the national Scouting and Guiding organisation of Sweden. The organisation was formed in 2012 by a restructuring of the Svenska Scoutförbundet and accepted as the successor of the Svenska Scoutrådet by the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts and the World Organization of the Scout Movement in 2013. The co-educational organisation has about 70,000 members. == History == The first Swedish organisations for Boy Scouts were founded in 1911 and 1912 and for Girl Guides in 1913. The movement developed mainly in two distinct branches: Non-religious units were organised in ''Sveriges Scoutförbundet'' (for boys) and ''Sveriges Flickors Scoutförbund'' (for girls) and protestant units formed the ''KFUM:s Scoutförbund'' (YMCA Scouts for boys) and the ''Sveriges KFUK:s Scoutförbund'' (YWCA Guides for girls). Scouting and Guiding existed also within some smaller organisations like the IOGT and the NTO. In 1930, the ''Sveriges Scoutförbund'' and the ''KFUM:s Scoutförbund'' founded the ''Svenska Scoutunionen'' (Swedish Scout Union) as an umbrella organisation aiming at the external representation of Swedish Scouting and at the harmonisation of the Scout programme. The Girl Guides followed in 1931 with the foundation of ''Sveriges Flickscoutråd'' (Girl Guide Council of Sweden). In the 1960s, Swedish Scouting and Guiding became co-educational. ''Sveriges Scoutförbundet'' and ''Sveriges Flickors Scoutförbund'' merged into Svenska Scoutförbundet in 1960, and ''KFUM:s Scoutförbund'' and ''Sveriges KFUK:s Scoutförbund'' formed the KFUK-KFUMs Scoutförbund in 1966. In 1968, this was followed by the merger of both national bodies into the Svenska Scoutrådet. Started by a grassroots' movement within the then five member associations of the Svenska Scoutrådet, the unification of the Swedish Scout and Guide movement was discussed since the mid-1990s. Important steps towards this goal were the national jamborees in 2001 and 2007 as well as the introduction of an common Scout uniform in 2007. In 2010 and 2011, the general meetings of all five associations voted for the unification. The Svenska Scoutförbundet was renamed to Scouterna in 2012. The Frälsningsarméns Scoutförbund and the KFUK-KFUMs Scoutförbund were fully integrated into Scouterna, and Nykterhetsrörelsens Scoutförbund and SMU Scout partly. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scouterna」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
