What is the female equivalent organization of the Scouts?

  • Guides

  • Girl Scouts

  • Brownies

  • Pathfinder

Answer

Guides are the female equivalent organization of the Scouts. The organization was founded in 1909 by Robert Baden-Powell's sister Agnes Baden-Powell, and is based on the same principles as the Scouts, but with a focus on activities that are traditionally seen as more feminine, such as arts and crafts, cooking, and first aid. The Guides are now an international organization, with over 10 million members in over 140 countries.
