JOHOR ROVERS VIRTUAL VIGIL 2021
Scouting is an educational movement for and of young people based upon the Fundamentals of Scouting: its purpose, principles, and method. The cause of Scouting is Education for Life where the Youth Programme is the main medium through which young people are educated for life. Hence the Youth Programme is the central element of Scouting, the vehicle through which the purpose of Scouting is achieved. Without the Youth Programme, there is no Scouting.
The youth Programme acknowledges areas of personal growth stated in the purpose of the scout movement as physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual development where all of these areas help the individual’s character development. Scouts as active citizens create a positive change in their communities. As a worldwide movement, Scouting should prepare young people to be active citizens within their local communities and also to be active global citizens.
The Scout Method- the educational system of Scouting- is often described as a system of progressive self-education. It consists of an interdependent group of elements forming a unified and integrated whole to achieve a purpose (team system, symbolic framework, personal progression, nature, adult support, learning by doing, and the scout law and promise)
The Youth Programme is implanted through a partnership between young people and adults, based on the young person’s interests, needs and abilities and together they should be able to analyze, identify, evaluate and design.
