Young Pioneers of China

Young PioneersOn the journey of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, the Communist Party of China is the vanguard, the Communist Youth League is the commando team, and the Young Pioneers [shào xian duì yuán] are the reserve team. Joining the team, joining the league, and joining the party are the "trilogy of life" for young people to pursue political progress.

All Chinese students aged 6 to 14 who are willing to join the Young Pioneers and abide by the team constitution can apply to the Young Pioneers organization of their school and become Young Pioneers upon approval. Players must do a good deed for the people before joining the team. There will be an induction ceremony. Players who reach the age of 14 should leave the team, and the Young Pioneers Brigade of their school will hold a leaving ceremony.

Young Pioneers are required to wear a red scarf during school as an identification mark. According to the interpretation of the team constitution, the red scarf represents the corner of the red flag, which is dyed with the blood of the revolutionary martyrs, and every team member should wear it and love it.

After joining the Chinese Young Pioneers, he will participate in many activities, including holding team meetings, organizing visits, visits, camping, travel, storytelling, cultural science, entertainment games, military sports and other activities, as well as participating in "public welfare labor and social practice".

On June 1, 2023, the National Youth Work Committee released a statistical briefing on the Chinese Young Pioneers. As of December 31, 2022, there were 114.671 million Young Pioneers nationwide. There are a total of 261,000 grassroots working committees across the country. Among them, there are 200,000 small working committees in primary and middle schools, and 61,000 small working committees outside schools such as urban and rural communities and youth palaces.

The Communist Youth League must fulfill the political responsibility of the whole group to lead the team, standardize and strengthen the working mechanism of the Young Pioneers to promote the best to join the League, and the Communist Youth League to promote the best to join the Party.

Influenced by the Soviet vanguard movement , the Communist Party of China set up several communist organizations for children in the early days of its establishment, such as the Young Pioneers established in the Soviet area in 1931 and the Children's League in the later period. In 1932, the "Resolution of the Central Committee on the Red May Movement" decided that the Young Pioneers should be led by members of the Communist Party and cadres of the working people. [13] Most of the Red Young Squad showed no ability to defend themselves, and when they were mobilized to cooperate with the Red Army in combat, they deserted and fled.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China , the Central Committee of the Chinese New Democratic Youth League announced the establishment of the "China Children's Team" on October 13, 1949. It was formed by the merger of the former Young Pioneers and the Children's League. It was changed to its current name in June 1953.

During the Cultural Revolution, the work of the Young Pioneers came to a standstill, and the " Red Little Soldier " organization gradually emerged to replace it. However, due to the implementation of the evaluation criteria, most of the Young Pioneers did not join the Red Soldiers during the Cultural Revolution. In October 1978, the Tenth Congress of the Communist Youth League announced the decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China to restore the name of the Chinese Young Pioneers to the Children's Organization.
