Scouting and Guiding in Spain
The Scout Movement in Spain consists of about 30 independent associations, most of them active on the regional level. Due to the regionalisation of Spain, even the larger nationwide associations are divided into regional sub-associations with individual emblems, uniforms and Scout programs.

Associations
Spanish Scout associations are divided in three organizational groups:
Associations affiliated to the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM)
Associations affiliated to the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS)
Independent organizations, including a number of members of the smaller international umbrella organizations.
