The question is: How does society look at us? And how does society see us? Two questions solve the problem of the scout relationship with the society and the extent of its influence in it. Our societies often suffer from marginalization or lack of care and attention by officials or society. This leaves a negative and negative impact. We are the owners of initiatives, we are a long-standing movement of 110 years, we have in our activities all kinds of activity, we are the owners of the school of the vacancy, we .. and we .. We .., then comes a football team of 11 players sheds the spotlight, and he Z attention and care, and become heroes superstars on the Square community, and guests of the media on satellite channels and programs !!
The dilemma remains. Thousands of scouts in every society do not enjoy the attention of the society to them, and a few of the players of the ball have the attention of the whole society, and I can say very clearly that this is not the case is the problem of the media towards us, the function of the real media is the expression and attention and attention to everything Society matters .. Is scouting charges of society ?? Does society see us at all? And how does society see us ?? ..
It is often noted that European scouts, for example, do not take great care of the media aspect, and their entire focus on educating the individual properly. This scout is the mobile media within every home, and the society directly touches their children.
The solution to our scouting problem in our Arab societies is to create an objective equivalence in the media to raise its appetite to interest us by drawing the attention of society to be of more interest to us, and then the media compass will automatically turn to scouting, because scouting will be an attractive point, And in practice only in one way, which is the daily presence of Scout in society ..
The daily presence of the scout in society is on two levels: the first is the behavior of the individual scout member, whether as a scout or leader, and secondly is what these individuals offer to the community of services, society needs to see the extent of behavioral change that occurred on scout members through their affiliation to the scout movement, This is regulated by the provisions of the Scouts Act; from sincerity, sincerity, benefit to others, cleanliness, literature, economy, obedience, fraternity, etc., and then the society will turn to the characteristics of the Scout as fixed features among scouts. To prefer an applicant to a public office over the other simply because it was submitted From his autobiography papers proving that he was a scout, this means an advantage to the employer that this individual is a person disciplined governor on the system and time .. etc.
The second part is what these individuals provide to the community of services. This is what we call the applied scouting media in society. In order to achieve this, we want society to see us as we implement projects to serve and develop society. And public fields highlight the role of scouting in society, we want the community to see us in television programs talk about scouts, we want the community to see us as we organize shows and festivals Scout In cities and villages, we want the community to see us as we invite public figures to attend concerts and who We want the community to listen to us and we are guests of programs directed by the radio on the radio, we want the community to see us and we offer seminars on the topics of detection We want the community to see us as we drive campaigns against addiction, smoking, environmental sanitation, and protection of water sources from pollution. The passion that expresses the national spirit and the Scouts in public concerts instead of the bad songs, we want For a community to see us as we contribute to the reforestation of streets, squares and parks, we want the community to see us planting flowers in public places and organizing festivals Like the flower festival, we want the community to see us and we produce a distinctive fragrance in the name of scouts. We want the community to see us and we are evaluating projects to provide food production. We want the community to see us as we organize festivals. For cellular cooking among the teams called to the general public, we want the community to see us as we produce some preserved food preserves Name scouts are sold at competitive prices, we want the community to see us and we organize campaigns to combat pollution and general hygiene, we want the community to see us and We adopt a coating project and remove bad sign from the roads.
The applied media of the Scout Movement is less than a thousand articles and news, it is the real picture that we hope to see in society, and if we achieve this, we will not need to wonder: Does society see us?? And how does society see us?? Except ourselves ....
