Bathrooms and Showering Facilities

Ideally, gender-specific bathrooms or latrines - or gender-neutral facilities - should be provided at scouting activities. If gender-specific or gender-neutral latrines cannot be provided, the entrances to the latrines should be publicly visible, i.e., not hidden away from view.

Ideally, separate shower facilities should be provided for different genders. If this is not possible, separate times should be provided for showering, or scouts should be allowed to request private showering times.

Adults should respect the privacy of youth, i.e., never entering areas where youths are changing or showering unless issues of health and safety are at stake.
