Liam Burns: Badges and Program Changes

Scouts Canada CEO Liam Burns offers his thoughts on “Youth Led”, the Canadian Path, badges, and more.

Podcast Topics

Scouts Canada CEO Liam Burns joins Scouter Ken for a discussion about...well, a number of things. Although it was Liam’s blog post about Scouts Canada’s badge program – which rightly called out some of the shortcomings of the new badge program ushered in under the Canadian Path initiative – that precipitated this meetup, the actual conversation ranges over a variety of topics. From Squirrel Scouts to the concept of “youth led”, badges to program frameworks, and keeping Scouting going through the pandemic, it’s a wide-ranging conversation!
