The negative effects of labor migration on families, especially on
children and women is significant, because they give rise to such
issues as psychological and social problems, sexually transmitted
illnesses, violence and abuse of children"- the head of the United
Nations Children's Fund Planning Department Arthur Ayvazov said during
the presentation of three-year program on "Mitigation of the social
effects of migration and the increase of the involvement of migrants
in the local development processes".
The program will be implemented with the support of the European Union
in conjunction with Ministry of Labor and Social Issue and Ministry
of Territorial Administration.
The aim of the program is to mitigate the effects of labor migration
on families and communities. 4 marzes were selected: Lori, Tavush,
Gegharkuniq and Shirak, taking into account the social vulnerability
of communities and families of migrants leaving in the regions.
Gegharkuniq, Shirak and Lori Marzes have the highest rate of migration
at the same time the poverty rate is high, which besides those regions
also concerns Tavush marz, and the fact that the region is a bordering
one was also taken into account.
The Minister of Labor and Social Affairs Artem Asatryan mentioned
that, the program will first of all serve to the establishment of
the institute of social worker, during the program the social workers
will assess the needs of the families of labor migrants, after which
appropriate programs will be implemented, which will also raise the
level of well-being for the families.
"It is very important to rightly asses the conditions and the risks,
because in that case the possibility of solution is high".
"50 social workers will work in the marzes, and the implementation
of the program will support the improvement of life for the families
of the migrants"- Arthur Ayvazov said.
