Mental health is a complex issue and it's important to approach it with care and compassion. These recommendations can be a starting point for supporting mental health of Scouts and Leaders, but it's always a good idea to seek expert advice and support from mental health professionals as needed.

1. Educate Scouts about mental health: Start by educating them about mental health and well-being, including the signs and symptoms of mental health challenges, how to cope with stress, and where to seek help. This education could be incorporated into workshops, events, and ongoing discussions within the organization.

2. Create a safe space: Ensure that youth feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings without judgment or stigma. This could be done by creating a safe space for discussion, providing confidential resources for support, and having trusted adults available to listen.

3. Foster connections: Encourage youth to build connections with each other and adults in the organization. Social support can be a powerful protective factor against mental health challenges, so it's important to prioritize community building.

4. Offer resources: Make sure that youth have access to mental health resources, such as hotlines, online support groups, and counseling services. Provide information about these resources and make sure that youth know how to access them if needed.

5. Address stigma: Address mental health stigma within the organization and encourage youth to challenge stigmatizing attitudes and language in their communities. Normalize the idea that seeking help for mental health challenges is a sign of strength.

6. Practice self-care: Encourage youth to prioritize self-care practices that support their mental health, such as mindfulness, exercise, and getting enough sleep. Model self-care practices as an adult in the organization.

Listening Ear should be included in every activity at least from national level - as QR code. From that every participant should be awared and welcomed to give any feedbacks, potential risks to the in charged team including the chairperson, experts, supporting staffs.
We believe that it is compulsory to include these codes in:
- Presentation slides
- ID card of participant
- Printed images on the walls of specific offline activities
- Public areas of an offline activity
- etc
The instructions for these codes should also be included in the introduction/orientation session in every Scouting activity.

Safe Form Harm Guideline for the marginalized groups in Scouting (LGBT, disabled, etc.)

# data[].attributes.subject
Safe Form Harm Guideline for the marginalized groups in Scouting (LGBT, disabled, etc.)

# data[].attributes.body
We all acknowledge that we should ensure the safe from harm for everyone at all levels in scouting. This could be more feasible and workable for the mainstreaming group while the marginalized group such as LGBTQ+, disabled, etc., are not. Marginalized groups are more vulnerable and easier to become the target of all types of abuse we have known, or they might be kindly excluded from Scouting.

Due to Asia's "close" and subtle culture, we are not ready to face this issue, but it does exist. We recommend that APR work on this and public guidance about this angle in conducting the Safe From Harm Policy.
