Unison completes awareness raising campaign in Armenia's regions
2008-12-15
Today, a series of roundtable discussions on the topic of “Disability in Armenia: Perspectives of Improvement of the Situation” came to a close. This effort was organized in all ten of Armenia’s regions over the course of the year.
The campaign was held with the financial support of the OSIAFA and the Dutch Government. Representatives of local authorities and DPOs, social, medical and educational institutions participated in the Roundtables.The Roundtables brought to the forefront many important issues facing people with disabilities, the most important of which are the lack of accessible environments, access to quality education and high unemployment in the regions for people with disabilities.
Unison’s team shared our considerable experience in the addressing such issues. Ways of future collaboration with regional organizations were identified.
