The Hungarian Pioneers' Association (Hungarian: Magyar Úttörők Szövetsége) was a pioneer movement in the Hungarian People's Republic. Today, there are 450 local Pioneer groups in every county in Hungary, involving kids aged 6 to 14.[1]
Origins[edit]
The traditions of the pioneer movement in Hungary go back to 1919.[2] It was founded in Budapest in the spring of that year, during the Hungarian Soviet Republic at the Rottenbiller Street school in the district. After the Second World War, in the summer of 1945, it was developed under the organization of the reorganized Hungarian Workers' Child Friendly Association. . The Association of Hungarian Pioneers officially raised its flag on June 2, 1946, and the Hungarian Scout Association was dissolved on July 20. Two years later, in May 1948, the pioneers wore white shirts and red ties, and the junior drummers wore blue.
Socialist era[edit]
The Association of Hungarian Pioneers became a children's organization of Hungarian society, being present in schools, sports clubs and housing estates. All members were members of the Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party.
After the system change, school pioneer teams were abolished and the system of individual membership was introduced. The former camping sites have been transformed, some have leisure centers or children's camps.[3]
