mmm ... the word independent, does not suit a lot of scouts organization. Yet the system of the squad (with one head and each has its own post) is the basis of scouting. I'd like to understand something more 'marked on the Independent and whether as a methodology can be likened to CNGEI (being secular and multi-faith).

From the cut and type of organization as indicated, it seems that it is a subsidiary of CNGEI. I think all this fragmentation - more or less matrix localist individual or small groups should be reconstructed as soon as possible to give more strength to push cultural and educational methods. From what I read and I think I feel - and certainly not only in this case - I think we are prey to intransigentismi, fundamentalism and particularism that reveal a substantial inability to be together. You will not be to open a shared reflection and reclaim our role as 'together'?

Dear and Hector Valerio, sorry for intruding but I too am part of the Federation. It is not particularism, but the need to move freely without coercion breathing. Believe me, the lack of dialogue comes only from the direction of CNGEI where, in meetings, it's all pre-established and durable, defended by a pseudo-democracy that leaves nothing to the dialogue. The atheist comes disguised as secularism is an illustration. The federal solution to these groups who call themselves independent was the logical solution. In any case, there is throughout the FEDERATION research of the origins of a scout, loyal to the method, so the young scout is in no danger. In Vicenza that has happened, not to die under the orders of people very rich incompetent and presumptuous, elected by assemblies operated, to do some scouting we became independent. Then we federated. Do not attribute all of us poor "rebels" to blame the lack of dialogue. We are in constant contact with many other national and our office is open and attended by many other groups AGESCI. Unthinkable in previous association. Back together, to converse? For us it is fine, but it was CNGEI to leave the dialogue to that effect several years ago when several attempts were being made by national headquarters. In CNGEI local seems to be in force and the prevailing order of silenzio.Considera however, that we count 80 members after three years of life at national and more than 4000. It seems there is only a phenomenon of protest but should be analyzed more deeply. I stop not to misuse the space allotted. A hug and a greeting scout.

If there are many organizations there is a reason? do not take only the negative. I'm a Catholic church, but some stories I did not go down as "divorce" of the sacred wheel to politicians etc..
Then, no one knows the mega hole in the branch and / g AGESCI? so that all allowances were increased to meet? it comes to theft of Scouts of entire pallets of material. You know nothing of "puttanaio" rover's way? There are many things that cause these divisions! perhaps should be addressed

But we still feel we are really brothers after all these divisions (broader spectrum)? It 's true, that the argument more difficult and anyone who'd like to address is the reunion!
Good road and good hunting to all.

Although divided brothers? Why not! perhaps "Italian" feel strong individualism and the tendency to divide and multiply rather than work in what we do not agree completely, especially at the local level. I know sorry but I wonder whether it is better 10 small associations which have a greater number of children that a more homogeneous and compact but more limited. What matters is to see, primarily in us, if the spirit of BP and commitment to children is always at the right place.

Well, this website e demonstrates that Scouting is alive in us all, beyond the appearances and petty disagreements. We continue like this, is the right way, without forgetting that we work for one group there giovani.Magari big and strong, where everyone can talk, but it does not. Perhaps pluralism is the right way forward. Who knows. Good hunting to you all.

The federscout counts about 2000 members ... The CNGEI, the first scout group was born in Italy, it has 10/11.000 ... Except that not all groups are secular or federscout pluriconfessionali, there are several groups created by splits within all'Agesci or ESF, even if they come back all the numbers together would be very far from the 130,000 and passes AGESCI, not to mention the ESF that has the same numbers in excess of CNGEI ..
We should ask ourselves this disparity of numbers, pass the word, awesome!

The history of scouting Italian (and beyond) is marked by divisions and fractures, which are often difficult to understand from the outside. In Italy, then we have the historical anomaly of a Federation (FIS), which meets only two historical organizations (Agesci and CNGEI) on politics, effectively excluding those who do not condivino method or political association. This means that there are about 40.ooo scout who, while following the method of BP have been organized differently. ESF, Federscout, Assoraider, Assiscout, New ASCI, Scouts of St. Benedict .... just to mention the most important. Unfortunately CNGEI AGESCI and are perched on their monopoly positions, and so it is fair to imagine an increase of local associations (encouraged by the federalist reforms) and we can not hope that an increase in the federal forms, having as common denominator, a native of Baden Powell Scouting. And maybe let us make ourselves realize that what makes us brothers scout membership is not one or the other association, but I made the same promise, and having accepted the same scout law. It is no small thing.

Eg one that refers to BP Scouting is not hard to think of sensations Scouting God, but unfortunately the times are ever changing, not even the search for values of the newspaper today is a leaven and, perhaps unfortunately, Scouting, riengo , must seek different forms of accepting kids today, and hope to revive in them the joyful desire to believe and live a transcendent ideal.

excuse the intrusion but I need to understand (being a parent of a Cub ESF and friends attended always in the various associations ESF / AGESCI / CNGEI).
There is no umbrella organization comprising all organizations (regardless of "color")?
I remained in the division of the 70 (from outside, unfortunately, not having ever been part of the scouts) and I thought, despite some cliffs that I had seen up to a decade ago, however, deeming them dependent on people and "cosmetic", which there was an organ in which they were all represented.

Yes there is one that meets the Federscout associations and scout groups both secular and religious (including both Catholics and Protestants. Among the members there are both individual associations with several local groups that groups like the AGES - Scout Sardis - a lay about 700 iscriti and AVSC - Venetian - Catholics. currently includes twenty associations with over 4000 members. I do not I belong to, are CNGEI, but I look with curiosity and interest. In Wikipedia, the encyclopedia on the internet, there are interesting and full pages on the Italian Scouting and the history of various scout associations.
good way

I apologize to complete but there is also the FIS is a federation that brings together "only", some say that with the exception of ESF see nearly 20000 members and much more of CNGEI, and Agesci CNGEI because WOSM and WAGGS, the two main global associations, registering only an association epr nation. For this reason the FIS seems more buracratica requirement that a real federation, is logically one of the many ways of seeing things.
good way

Good Hunting to all!
Says well Tarci! The Federscout, we scout Sardinians have helped found and of which we are still part, brings together most of the associations on a local, independent and maintain cordial relations with some other associations increasingly independent, just like the scouts to make an example of Gela . What binds us together is Scouting, as we have been taught by BP The federscout organizes every year the federal activities for the different branches of scouts, as well as federal leaders courses each year. Periodically, the Assembly shall meet and never miss the spontaneous collaborations between groups and the help and mutual respect. I add to what was said by Tarci a VERY important detail: from February, the Prospector is Federscout WFIS member of a scout association in the world that gathers all the independent scouting. It 'a reality recently, but continuous and progressive growth and expansion!

binaco dear bear, cabbage yet a Scout, then it means that you have not understood anything, and that the poor animals we must yet soportare. Talk about good and evil Razzoli! as always.
Good hunting to all and a tip from a scout leader who knew the way he met the old bear binco, well compared to the experience I recommend you avoid it.
The right track.
