The Corpo Nazionale Giovani Esploratori ed Esploratrici Italiani (CNGEI, National Corps of Young Italian Scouts and Guides) is an Italian Scout and Guiding association that started its activities in 1913^[1] with the support of Carlo Colombo following Baden Powell's method. CNGEI is the oldest of the Italian Scout associations and the third by membership^{[2] [3] [4]}. CNGEI is a coeducational and nondenominational (laical) association, and has around 12,000 members.
