A SCOUT IS TRUSTWORTHY. Do you think this statement is true as a scout? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Uganda Scouts (talk • contribs) 18:00, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Website[edit]

The article gives two web addresses for the Uganda Scouts Association, www.ugandascouts.org and www.scouts.or.ug Neither of them appear to work. DuncanHill (talk) 13:23, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.ugandascouts.org/ is listed at WOSM and works for me. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 14:09, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just comes up as a blank page for me on both Chrome and IE. The Google cached page just comes up as blank too. DuncanHill (talk) 14:26, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Huh. Must be some sort of connection issue. You don't have it blocked perchance? ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 03:04, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How would that have happened? And how would I find out if it had? DuncanHill (talk) 17:13, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What browser? ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 17:28, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Still Chrome and IE, as I mentioned before. DuncanHill (talk) 01:10, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Scouts getting involved in community by Mukasa Arnold Mayombwe[edit]

Community involvement Active exploration and commitment to communities and the wider world, fostering greater appreciation and understanding between people. The term “community” refers to a social unit whose members have something in common. A Scout’s community includes those with in scouting (e.g. unit, District, country/region/state), and it could be local or international in nature. The emphasis on community involvement highlights; The shared values and principles of scouting .The application of the scout method happens mostly within the local community content. It becomes an important vehicle for increasing one’s awareness on global challenges and initiatives, for joining global action, and for assimilation / developing global shared values. The influence of the community and societies where scouts come from in their personal development process .Activities and the cycle of action and reflection enables young people to develop a deeper understanding of themselves while having a meaning full contribution to the overall objectives of the community they live in. Community engagement equally allows scouts to experience and work with people from different diversities. Therefore ,working with and within the community enables scouts to increase their inter – cultural understanding, appreciate inter – generational issues that come into play, and get more involved in the community in other scopes of their lives. Every learning opportunity scout undertakes should wherever possible be linked to how t could be used within the community .When a scout learns to tie a new knot like the bowline, it should be linked on how it could be applied to saving a life .Even when a scout experiences a learning opportunity that may appear only to benefit one self (e.g. a sports activity) , one should also reflect how such a learning opportunity could benefit the community (e.g. a fit and healthy scout would be well – placed to serve the community better).

Community involvement promotes greater cohesion and rallies each member of the community towards a common purpose of transforming their communities for the better .It exposes more people to the values and purpose of scouting and encourages them to support the cause of scouting creating a better world is a journey which scouts be a collective effort regardless of the size of the learning opportunity scouts engage in service should not just be seen as doing things for others the element of community involvement is about helping scouts to create a better world. The focus is on active citizenship 154.226.156.90 (talk) 13:57, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
