The
participation of the scouts for the first time at the exhibition was
represented by the new publication in the series of the scouting
educational curriculum, which took its first step with its Islamic
education book, along with brochures introducing the scouting movement
and the history of scouting, enabling the Algerian Muslim Scouts to make
its presence felt amongst 120 thousand titles brought this year from
numerous publishing houses, including national, Arab and international
ones.
In
chatting with some citizens of different ages and from different groups,
all of whom valued the effort, considering the educational publications
an essential and important resource for children and youths within the
ranks of scouting regiments, as it is aimed towards their instruction,
and is a source of unity for all the children of the scouts during the
process of training and learning through implementation. Some parents
also emphasised that the book was a founding stone and a long lasting
basis for their children in the area of informative educational
instruction within the scouting movement.
