RIYADH: The ����ֱ��n Scouts Association won the Arab Scout Youth Award for its innovative project, “Plant and Play.”

The association ranked among the top five youth initiatives in the second competition organized by the Arab Scout Region, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Monday.

Presented by Scout Shahd Al-Harbi, “Plant and Play” is a digital educational app that fosters a love of agriculture through interactive learning.

It guides users step by step in planting and caring for plants while providing games and activities that encourage creativity and discovery.

The project promotes environmental conservation, teaching children eco-friendly habits such as recycling plastic bottles and cardboard boxes to create planters.

It aims to raise a generation that values food, understands agriculture’s role in food security, and cares for the environment.

The app also introduces basic agricultural concepts while promoting responsibility, patience, generosity, observation, and critical thinking skills.

Al-Harbi will be honored at the closing ceremony of the sixth Arab Scout Youth Forum in Abu Dhabi on Nov. 13, highlighting the importance of innovation in the scout movement and advancing sustainable development goals.
