Organization of the Scout Movement of Kazakhstan: Difference between revisions

In 1990 a conference (or Congress) of people interested in Scouting was held in [[Moscow]]. [[Viktor Deimund]] (now the President of the Scout Movement of Kazakhstan) represented Kazakhstan at the Congress. The Congress established the ''Association of Russian Scouting Renaissance''. The homegrown Scout troops within Kazakhstan joined the membership of the [[Russian Association of Scouts/Navigators#After 1990|Ural Scout Region]].  

Scouting was specifically established in Kazakhstan in 1991 after the fall of communism. The first Scout troops were organized in 1991 by Viktor Deimund and [[Oleg Mozheyko]], and later that year, Scout troops were organized in many towns and districts in Kazakhstan. Republic-wide newspapers published the first articles on the work of [[Pavlodar]] Scout troops. Shortly thereafter, hundreds of letters came to Pavlodar from people askeing for help to create Scout units. Pavlodar Scout leaders published and sent out Scouting literature, and Scout troops were created in different cities and parts of Kazakhstan.
