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.

coordinate its activities with the Ministry. The ARS representatives
reiterated the organization's commitment to ongoing cooperation with
the Ministry.
