The OSCE Office in Yerevan and Armenia's Ministry of Sport and Youth
Affairs signed a memorandum of understanding today to promote civic
activism among young people in Armenia's regions.
The parties will work together to promote effective management of
regional youth centres, and to support the centres in establishing
partnerships with public organizations to share experiences and
organize training sessions, workshops and discussions.
"We attach great importance to the civic involvement of young people
in the regions, who have fewer opportunities compared with young
people in Yerevan. Their increased participation in the activities
and governance of the regional youth centres, we believe, will help
to educate the next generation of democratic leaders in Armenia,"
said Ambassador Sergey Kapinos, Head of the OSCE Office in Yerevan,
at the signing ceremony today.
"Investments made in the youth sphere are most beneficial since it
is the young people who create the future of the country. Educated,
healthy and socially protected youth today means a developed Armenia
tomorrow", said Armen Grigoryan, Minister of Sport and Youth Affairs.
The co-ordinators of the regional youth centres attended the signing
of the memorandum. The Office also distributed OSCE publications
for the newly-established=2 0"OSCE Corners" at the youth centres,
which have been operating in Armenia's ten regions since 2006.
