Eagle1993 Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 It will be interesting on how they show this as the video update said this will be the first merit badge with no pamphlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RememberSchiff Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 No requirements...no pamphlet...so if a scout registers for the merit badge can the MBC say at the first meeting, Well I can't add requirements, I guess you all pass. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jameson76 Posted October 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2021 Great - another sit in a class and try to stay awake merit badge. Boy Scouts, in order to differentiate the program in the market place, needs to be action and activity oriented, not more schooling. News flash, there is a ton of sit in class stuff available to youth these days. As has been noted, better solution would have been to work some changes in to the EXISTING Citizenship MB's and move on 3 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PACAN Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Quick look comparing the Jan 21 "final" requirements and these Terms Bigotry, Intersectionality, Section in welcoming environment that lists gender identity, sexual orientation - GONE Choose organization that promotes positive change such as WOSM - GONE Public presentation on community efforts - GONE Attend an event - GONE Create a Pledge - GONE - how you will act if you witness bigotry or hate Discuss careers MB can probably be done sitting around a campfire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much a classroom exercise Requirement 6 will be interesting: Interesting it could be a Scout With your parent’s or guardian’s approval, connect with another Scout or youth your own age who has an identity that’s different from yours. (This means a trait, belief, or characteristic different from you.) Requirement 7 could be also interesting. The historical figure will be the path many will choose Identify and interview an individual in your community, school, and/or Scouting who has had a significant positive impact in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. If you feel your community, school, or local Scouting group does not have such an individual, then research a historical figure who meets these criteria,and discuss that person with your counselor Edited November 1, 2021 by Jameson76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
