The World Buddhist Scout Council (WBSC) is an autonomous, international body committed to promoting and supporting Buddhism within Scouting. Its objectives include developing a spiritual education curriculum for young Buddhists, fostering inter-religious dialogue, and promoting Scouting among Buddhist boys and girls globally.
The WBSC was declared active on the 21st of July 2004, with the election of its first chairman. It received consultative status with the World Scout Committee on the 9th of March 2009, after fulfilling a minimum requirement of three years of demonstrated activity.
In 2016, the organization changed its name from the World Buddhist Scout Brotherhood to the World Buddhist Scout Council to reflect a commitment to gender equality and greater inclusivity. The new name aligned the title with the organization's stated goal of promoting Scouting among both Buddhist boys and girls.
The WBSC's member nations include Brazil, Bhutan, France, Hong Kong, Japan, Mongolia, Norway, the Republic of China (Taiwan), Singapore, Sri Lanka, South Korea, Thailand, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
In 2009-82 Scouts from Mongolia and the United Kingdom spent a week repainting the Manzushir Khiid temple in Dzuunmod, a town 43 kilometers south of Ulaanbaatar. A large sum of money was also donated to improve the temple's facilities. The temple stands on the site of a monastery of the same name destroyed by the Mongolian communist government in 1937.
The Dalai Lama sent a personal blessing to all Scouts attending the 2019 World Scout Jamboree in North America. WBSC members were active at the event, running a Buddhism exhibition space, contributing to an interfaith spirituality area, and helping operate an LGBT+ safe space for young people and adults.
