As the Chief Scout of Nepal Scouts, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the all Scouts members and the citizens of Nepal on the occasion of 72nd Establishment Day of Nepal Scouts. It brings me immense pleasure to be a part of the Nepal Scouts and contribute to the global movement of Scouting. On this auspicious day, I would like to acknowledge the tremendous efforts made by the Nepal Scouts in promoting the holistic development of young people. Nepal Scouts holds a significant responsibility of engaging the community on the path of peace and sustainable development, and I feel honored to be a contributing factor in achieving the Vision 2032, which reflects the tremendous amount of enthusiasm and ambitious growth target. The organization has made remarkable progress in furthering its mission and has become an essential pillar for the development of young people in our country. As a part of the government I will always advocate to support the movement through its legal aspects as well as providing necessary resources. Moreover, on this auspicious occasion, I am delighted to announce that we will be implementing the concept of "One Home, One Scout" across the nation. This initiative aims to ensure that every household in Nepal has at least one member actively involved in the scouting movement. By doing so, we envision expanding the reach and impact of the scouting movement, fostering the values of leadership, teamwork, and community engagement in every corner of our nation to make our young people a global active citizen.

I am pleased to inform you that the Ministry of Youth and Sports will be working hand in hand with Nepal Scouts to propel the scouting movement to new heights. The collaborative efforts between the ministry and Nepal Scouts will create a conducive environment for the organization to flourish, enabling it to deliver its mission more effectively and efficiently not only inside the country but also globally. I urge all members of Nepal Scouts to continue their unwavering commitment to the ideals of scouting, to inspire and empower the young generation, and to make a positive difference in our society. I believe that the year 2021-2022 was fruitful for Nepal Scouts to move forward to the achievement of its vision, and I am confident that coming year will be more productive and impactful.

Once again, congratulations to Nepal Scouts on reaching this significant milestone. Let us march forward with renewed determination and enthusiasm, embracing the spirit of scouting, and making a lasting impact on the lives of young people. Happy 72nd Establishment Day to all Nepal Scouts and their supporters!

Covid-19 have high levels of mental distress along with economic losses. Through the involvement of the scouts and through human centric design the different facets of story are collected and thus a story is developed that represents general mass. The theme of prevention mechanism is followed throughout the video based story-telling. The five videos were entitled as: 1. Comparision 2. Pressure 3. Chakkar 4. Dhusi 5.

Social Media

The five video as part of the human-centric design have a huge traction and many of the comments from the social media point to that direction. The email where some have shared the story also tells the thought process of the people. Alongside the video, an activity pack is also developed based on the five thematic areas that the video is worked on. The activity pack will be the guidelines for the young child to express themselves or to advocate the issues related to psychosocial health. This is a new collaboration between UNICEF Nepal and Nepal Scouts in the domain of young children.
