In 1978, Mahmoud el-Alamy was awarded the Bronze Wolf, the only distinction of the World Organization of the Scout Movement, awarded by the World Scout Committee for exceptional services to world Scouting.

In 1994, the international seminar "Scouting: Youth without Borders" was held in Morocco.

Since April 1997, HRH Prince Moulay Rachid has been the president of the National Federation of Moroccan Scouting.

The Atlantic Jamboree was inaugurated on 23 July 2007 in Ras El Maa. Around 2400 Cubs, Beavers, Scouts, Guides, Senior Scouts and Rovers participated in the jamboree, organised by the Scoutisme Hassania Marocain.

Program and ideals

Each of the associations in the federation has a program which includes many community service activities and development projects.

  • Eclaireurs (Scouts) - ages 12 to 17

The Scout Motto is Kun Musta'idan or كن مستعداً, Be Prepared in Arabic, and is Sois Prêt in French. The noun for a single Scout is Kashaf or كشاف in Arabic.

The Scout emblem of the Fédération Nationale du Scoutisme Marocain, as well as those of most federation members, incorporates the seal of Suleiman of the flag of Morocco.
