A sustainable Scout : A qualitative study about scout leaders´thoughts about how they transfer sustainable thinking to the young
Abstract The aim with this study is to deepen the knowledge about what leaders in the Scouts think about their methods for learning and understanding the delicacy of nature and social life, helplessness versus initiative, and if they think that learning outdoors affects sustainable thinking and living in any way. I think the topic of my aim is important when it is about kids and a sustainable future, furthermore, there has not been specially much research done in this topic, especially not in the Scouts. I decided to do a qualitative study where I use thematic analysis to analysis the findings. The first thought the Scout leaders seems to have, is that what they do need to be sustainable if it shall work as they want. The findings also show that the Scout leaders use special tools in their work with the kids, some of their tools are, learning by doing, situational leadership, and discussions, they use the tools on a ground of good values with nature as workspace, clasroom, and Livingroom. I am happily surprised that the findings show that the Scout leaders in a remarkable way care for the children to grow from the inside and out in a sustainable way. I can see in the findings that the Scout leaders are sure that children first need to have a certain level of sustainable feelings about themselves before they can connect with nature which is a must before they can start caring about it. This thesis shows the core of what the Scout leaders think of their work, and hopefully it can help the Scout leaders, but also others to handle the young in a more sustainable way, that helps the young to a more sustainable life.When I do not find any earlier research about this study´s specific topic my wish is that this study will add knowledge to the area of research, about how to increase the sustainable life for the young so they in turn have a chance to make society more sustainable.
