EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a historic moment in the Scouting movement's international history, as Chief Scout Sir Charles Maclean pays a visit to Ghana, West Africa, in March 1965. Surrounded by a warm welcome party, Sir Charles stands proudly in his full Scout uniform, complete with kilt, as he engages in conversation with the Asantehene, Sir Osei Agyeman Prempeh II. The Asantehene, dressed in traditional African attire, is flanked by his esteemed courtiers, both men and women, all dressed in their finest garments. The setting is the vibrant city of Kumasi, where the energy and excitement of the crowd are palpable. Sir Charles Maclean's visit to Ghana marked a significant milestone in the Scouting movement's expansion into Africa. The Scout movement, which originated in the United Kingdom, had been growing steadily in Ghana since the late 1950s, and Sir Charles' visit served to strengthen the bonds between the Scouting associations of Ghana and the UK. This photograph is a testament to the universal appeal and impact of the Scouting movement, transcending cultural and geographical boundaries. The 1960s were a time of great change and progress, both in the Scouting world and in Ghana. The Scouting movement was evolving, and the African Scouting associations were playing an increasingly important role in shaping its future. Meanwhile, Ghana was on the brink of independence from British rule, and the country was embracing its rich cultural heritage while looking towards a bright, independent future. This photograph captures a moment of connection and collaboration between two distinct communities, united by their shared commitment to the values of Scouting.
