English term or phrase: active bystander
What is an Active Bystander?

Everybody is a Bystander at some time.

A Bystander is a person who observes a conflict or unacceptable behavior. It might be something serious or minor, one-time or repeated, but the Bystander knows that the behavior is destructive or likely to make a bad situation worse.

An active bystander takes steps that can make a difference.

First, an active bystander assesses a situation to determine what kind of help, if any might be appropriate.

Second, an active bystander evaluates options and chooses a strategy for responding.

See Responding to Situations for examples of appropriate strategies in a variety of situations.

متفرج نشط (فعال)


Explanation:
هو متفرج لكنه لا يقف مكتوف الأيدي بشكل كامل، بل يتخذ خطواتٍ عمليةً لفض النزاع.
أي أنه لا يتدخل مباشرةً فيكون غير متفرج، ولا يترك التدخل بالكلية فيكون متفرجاً كاملاً، بل يقف بين المنزلتين، فيكون بهذا متفرجاً فعالاً (أو متفرجاً متدخلاً).

المفترج الإيجابي


Explanation:
المتفرج الإيجابي الذي يتفرج على الحدث (كالشجار) لكنه بعد ذلك يتخذ خطوات عملية، ولا يتفرج فحسب.

ملاحظة: نفس التوضيح في إجابتي السابقة ينطبق هنا، لكني رأيت أن هذه أجمل

المشاهد أو المار الشهم


Explanation:
It is exactly the opposite of a mere onlooker or a mere /passive bystander.
يكثر استخدامه عند الحديث عن الشهامة والتحرك لإنقاذ شخص تعرض لاعتداء أو سرقة، الخ ... وعكسها انك تقف موقف المتفرج
