== Notes ==
World Brotherhood was first offered in 1952 as a replacement for the Citizenship merit badge along with Citizenship in the Nation and Citizenship in the Home. It was replaced in 1972 by Citizenship in the World. 

From 1952 to 1968 the badge design was a globe. In 1969 until it was discontinued in 1972 the design was changed to be the scout sign on a blue background.
