    Netherlands Embassy in Tbilisi announced about the new grant 3 - month
    program on the "consolidation of human rights through development of
    abilities of the chosen NGOs."

    a half years. The investment of the OSIAF Armenian branch in the
    program will be about 373,050 USD. The NGOs will be chosen through
    competition and each of them will get 25000 - 35000 USD.

    According to the director of the OSIAF Armenian branch Larissa Minasyan

    following fields; closed establishments of human rights protection,
    speech freedom, availability of independent mass media and justice and
    the security of people emphasizing the economic right of the vulnerable
