Scouting Ireland is currently developing a new programme using WOSM's ''Renewed Approach to Programme'' methodology.

The Programme Development Team meet regularly to assess how the needs and aspirations of young people have changed over time and how best to design activities that remain challenging for Scouting Ireland's youth members. Scouting Ireland inherited two separate programmes from its legacy associations, thus prompting the need to create a single method.

Scouting Ireland launched [[ONE Programme]] at its National Council in March 2010. This Programme is geared to make Youth Members more central in their Programme. See [[ONE Programme]]

National Events
Annually the National Scout Forum and the National Venture Scout Forum meet. These fora debate motions relating to the running of the association. Membership of the fora represent each Scout County in Ireland and are elected at Regional fora by their peers. Successful motions are carried forward to the relevant national bodies. Each forum elects 9 representatives who then represent the interests of youth members on various committees throughout their term of office (one year). 3 [[Scouters]] under the age of 26 are eligible to sit on the National Management Committee.
There are a number of events run in Scouting Ireland. A full list can be found at [http://my.scouts.ie My Scouts]
