    Abstract

    In 1918, Poland after 123 years of foreign rule regained its independence. The country was recreated from three partitions. The process of restoring the statehood came across numerous problems: war damage, lack of political structures, or of one, unified legislation or education system. The situation was further complicated by the global economic crisis. The new authorities were aware that the issue of education and upbringing was a priority. The Salesians who had been present in Polish lands since 1898, actively participated in the reconstruction of the young country. They formed secondary school education, vocational schools and orphanages. One of the forms of youth work was scouting. The Salesians supported this form and were involved in organizing and running scout squads.
