3500 SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS IN ARMENIA

Social

Under the information of Armenian Justice Ministry, there are about 3500 social organizations registered in Armenia. But only 10-15% of them perform a leading role in the social life of our country.

According to MP Vazgen Khachikyan, one of the reasons why social organizations aren’t widely adopted is that their founders don’t know what a social organization is and what its missions are.

Mr. Khachikyan also says there are so-called locomotive social organizations, which are serious partners with some international organizations and partake in international projects.

”Fund of Right Protection after Sakharov”, “Mission Armenia” charitable social organization and “Armenian Association of Young Lawyers” are considered as leading social organizations in Armenia.

To introduce the activity of the social organizations in Armenia to the society “Social Organizations 2004” conference and exhibition will be held in the Sitting Hall of Government on October 15-17. 300 social organizations representing various spheres of Armenia partake in the arrangements.
