      • The All-Russian Scout Association (ARSA; Russian: Всероссийская скаутская ассоциация) is a Scouting and public youth organization in Russia. ARSA is the recognized member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement for Russia as part of the Eurasian Scout Region, joining the Asia-Pacific Scout Region in October 2023, as the Eurasian Scout Region was dissolved. ARSA represents Russia internationally in Scouting and has an estimated membership of 15,000 (2018).
      ARSA was founded in 2004 as the Russian Association of Scouts/Navigators (RAS/N; Росси́йская Ассоциа́ция Навига́торов/Ска́утов) as an umbrella organization for dozens of Scout organizations and adopted its current name in 2014. The unification occurred 25 years after the establishment of the Revival of Russian Scouting Association in 1990, and announced as a "big step in the unification of the Scout movement" in Russia. ARSA is a member of the National Council of Youth Organizations of the Russian Federation and an active participant in a number of programs and projects of the Committee on Youth Affairs.
