Belarusian Republican Scout Association

The Republican Scout Association of Belarus (Russian: Белорусская республиканская скаутская ассоциация, Belorusskaya respublikanskaya skautskaya assotsiatsiya, Belarusian: Беларуская рэспубліканская скаўцкая асацыяцыя, BRSA) is one of several nationwide Scouting associations in Belarus.

[2][3] Initially, the organization was called the National Scout Association of Belarus (Belarusian: Беларуская Нацыянальная Скаўцкая Асацыяцыя, romanized: Belaruskaya Natsianalnaya Skautskaya Asatsiyatsia, BNSA) from 1998 to 1999.

World Scouting News further reported "The Belaruskaya Natsianalnaya Skautskaya Asatsiyatsia regularly invites underprivileged children, some of them coming from the Chernobyl contaminated areas, to some of their national summer camps."

The BRSA was provisionally suspended for "Non-adherence to the Constitution of the Organization and nonfunctioning as a democratic National Scout Movement" in 2002, after "Complaints (...) received from unrecognised groups within the country about the conduct of the recognised NSO", which led to a report by WOSM's Chairman of the Constitutions Committee, demanding a legitimate general assembly and an independent auditing of its accounts.

The name of the organisation in Belarusian is Беларуская рэспубліканская скаўцкая асацыяцыя (Biełaruskaja respublikanskaja skaŭckaja asacyjacyja).
