YEREVAN, AUGUST 13, ARMENPRESS: Trainings are intended to conduct
for the working staffs of 4 daytime child care centers within the
frameworks of the joint program of the OSCE Yerevan office and of
"Resource Center for Fighting against Trafficking" of the Armenian
Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs.
Consultant of the center on social affairs Eleonora Virabyan
told Armenpress that these are the institutions which work with
children of socially insecure families, are well aware of the way of
life, possibilities and social issues of those families; hence the
involvement of suchlike institutions in fighting against trafficking
is of great importance. Currently survey is conducted in those centers
for assessing the needs and knowledge on trafficking of the working
staff. After summing up the results, classes of special inclination
will be organized for them. The assessment work is implemented by
"Communities' Development Social Center" NGO. The Resource Center for
Fighting against Trafficking has conducted numerous workshops in the
provinces of the republic on the theme of "Increase and strengthening
of capabilities of the parties involved in the process of providing
aid to the victims of the trafficking, in which employees of province
centers for defense of children's rights, of healthcare and social
departments, police, employment services, as well as representatives
of NGOs partook. E. Virabyan said that at the workshops the activity
of the center and the legislation of the sphere have been presented.
The consultant noted that there are still considerable works to be
carried out in the direction of increasing the competence level of
the population especially in the provinces". It is strange but most of
the victims of trafficking either do not know about the institutions
which display support or know but do not apply, as do not believe in
support," she said. Sixty victims of trafficking have been revealed
last year in the Republic. The 24 of them have been extended support
within the programs of NGOs and state programs. Three victims of
trafficking have been revealed in the first quarter of this year.
