Project Description:
The study visit in Armenia is the third in a series of study visits in the Caucasus dedicated to discover the current social and economic situation of young people living in this part of the post-soviet world. After having looked at the voluntary sector in Georgia in 2011 and the challenges for young people in Ganja region in Azerbaijan in 2012, the third edition of “Discover the Caucasus” will focus on the human rights situation in Armenia.
Therefore, the study visit will feature meetings with various local NGOs in Vanadzor, Gyumri and Yerevan on different aspects of human rights such as gender equality, rights of sexual minorities, equal opportunities for marginalised youth, legal protection and advice for people in conflict with the law and peace-building.
Additionally, the participants will conduct interviews with local young people in each city to engage into a dialogue on their perception of the meaning and importance of human rights.
With this programme the study visit aims to get an insight into the human rights situation and the civil sector defending human rights in Armenia, to discover young peoples’ perception of human rights in Armenia and more generally in the EECA region, and to create new partnerships enhancing local capacities for human rights protection in Armenia and in EECA region.
