    ARS "Soseh" Kindergarteners in Stepanakert.

    STEPANAKERT-An Armenian Relief Society delegation traveled to the
    Nagorno-Karabakh Republic early this month where they met with
    Karabakh's Prime Minister and Minister of Education and Science for
    talks on the status of 11 ARS Kindergartens in the republic.

    The delegation, which met with Prime Minister Arayik Harutiunian and
    Minister Vladik Khachatrian on November 5, included ARS Chairperson
    Vicky Marashlian, ARS Executive Director Jirair Beujekian, ARS Artsakh
    Chairperson Margarita Taranian and ARF Artsakh Central Committee
    Representative, Davit Ishkhanian.

    The delegation discussed with the two officials the possibility of
    securing the necessary means for allowing the 11 "Soseh" kindergartens
    to continue functioning and serving to their communities. The meeting
    also covered the need for increased involvement of women in the social
    sphere of the Republic, and the ARS expectations to that end.

    The two ministers were also briefed on the various ARS educational,
    health and humanitarian programs presently being implemented in
    Artsakh.

    Later in the day, Marashlian, Beujekian and Taranian met with Karabakh
    Health Minister Gevorg Gevorgian to discuss a recent shipment from
    the ARS of hospital beds to the Health Ministry, as well as future
    programs planned by the ARS.

    Gevorgian expressed his appreciation for the ARS's efforts to
    coordinate its activities with the Ministry. The ARS representatives
    reiterated the organization's commitment to ongoing cooperation with
    the Ministry.

    On November 6, the ARS delegation attended the opening ceremony of a
    recently renovated building at the Hadrut region's Taghlar village
    ARS "Soseh" Kindergarten. In use for almost a decade, construction
    work on the building began late this summer. The kindergarten has 65
    pupils divided into three age groups.

    Hadrut's governor, present at the opening ceremony, pledged to soon
    begin renovation of the ARS kindergarten in the village of Togh.
