Ittihodi Scouthoi Tojikiston

The Ittihodi Scouthoi Tojikiston (Tajik: Иттиҳоди Скоутҳои Тоҷикистон, Persian: اتحادیه اسکاوتهای تاجیکستان, Etehadih-e Eskauthai-ye Tajikâstan), the national Scouting organization of Tajikistan, was founded in 1993, and became a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM) on April 18, 1997.

The return to relative calm at the beginning of 1995 allowed the expansion of Scouting into the countryside through the rural school system.

Ittihodi Scouthoi Tojikiston's credibility is largely due to its openness to all ethnic and religious groups, and also to its efficiency and effectiveness in working under very difficult conditions with extremely limited resources.

The Scout Association of Tajikistan has 1,904 members (as of 2004), boys and girls, in 15 towns or areas, with several groups in three zones of conflict: Garm, Shaartuz, and the high valleys of Gorno-Badakhshan, populated mainly with Ismailis.

The membership badge of Ittihodi Scouthoi Tojikiston incorporates elements of the coat of arms as well as the flag of Tajikistan.
