Organization of the Scout Movement of Kazakhstan

The coeducational Organization of the Scout Movement of Kazakhstan (Kazakh: Скауттык Қoзғaлыс Ұіымы Қазақстан, Skawttık Qozğalıs Uiımı Qazaqstan; Russian: Организация Скаутского Движения Казахстана, Organizatsiya Skautskogo Dvizheniya Kazakhstana) was officially founded in 1992, and received World Organization of the Scout Movement recognition on January 16, 2008.

During the council, President Deimund discussed the development of Scouting in Kazakhstan with Doctor Jacques Moreillon, the Secretary General of WOSM.

Every year Guides and Scouts from the OSMK and BdP meet each other in camps or training courses either in Germany or Kazakhstan, helping and learning from each other.

On October 5, 2004, the Internet Access and Training Program (IATP) brought together 20 Scouts from Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan for a two-hour online discussion of their activities from the IATP access sites in five cities in Kazakhstan and three in Uzbekistan, aimed to bring together representatives of the Scouting movements from these countries to promote friendship and cooperation.

Scouts from Kazakhstan named as their main challenge a lack of funds, and the difficulty of building a successful fundraising operation.

With the 1991 breakup of the Soviet Union, it was suggested that the Türkiye İzcilik Federasyonu assist in the creation of Scouting movements in the Turkic Central Asian republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, but it is uncertain if this plan ever materialized.

In accordance with the requirements of the WOSM Constitution, the World Scout Committee considered this application at its meeting from September 28 to 30, 2007, and recommended that it be accepted.

On my honor, I promise that I will do my best, to do my duty to God and the Motherland, to help other people and to obey the Scout Law.
