Global Youth Union

During our project we had a study visit to the Helsinki citizens' assembly - Vanadzor.
We are very grateful to Artur Sakunts, who host us to his organization in Vanadzor and introduced us to human rights issue and situation in Armenia.
The president of the organization, Artur Sakunts, presented the situation in the region, the Caucasus, the domestic and foreign political situation of Armenia, the relations with the neighboring states and Russia. During the visit, the participants were interested in what is happening in Nagorno-Karabakh, at what stage Armenian-Azerbaijani relations are at, what are the possible solutions for it, what is the progress of democracy and human rights issues in Armenia.

We successfully finished our project Human Rights Values which was full of wonderful moments, emotions and memories. We would like to share about our wonderful speakers and trainers in the brochure.
