The public will have more access to UN-related information at a sixth
and newest UN Corner, which was launched today in Goris at the Syunik
based NGO "Women Resource Centre".
Youth, journalists, researchers, civil society activists and all
interested individuals can use the library at the UN Corner to learn
more about the UN values and its work. It will also serve as the
base for UN-related cultural, educational, and other events for the
local community.
"We are happy to have the UN Corner in Goris and especially in
our "Women Resource Center". We will unite our efforts with local
authorities and UN partners and will make sure it will serve as an
additional instrument to raise the activeness of youth in our region.
We appreciate this initiative and look forward to continue our
cooperation with the UN Armenia Office", said Ruzanna Torozian,
Chairwoman of "Women Resource Center".
Representatives from the local community, municipal officials and
young activists gathered together for round table discussions about
UN work at Armenia.
Maria Dotsenko, UN Department of Public Information Representative
said: "This is an important day for us at the UN; we are looking
forward to have a UN Corner in Syunik region. Public's support and
participation in UN work makes this organization what it is today:
strong and effective. I am pleased that now the people from Syunik
region will have an opportunity to learn more about work of the
United Nations."
Five other UN Corners exist in Artashat, Gyumri, Hrazdan, Ijevan
and Kapan cities thanks to the cooperation between the Ministry of
