in the public, political, economic, cultural, educational and other
sectors, as the Department of Information and Public Relations of
the Armenian Young Women's Association reports to "Armenpress".
The event was held as part of the EU-funded Women's Socio-Economic
Empowerment in Armenia Program carried out by the AYWA in the Lori
Province. In her speech, President of AYWA Lilit Asatryan mentioned
that the European Union carries out several programs, and this is
brilliant evidence of that. "More than 100 ladies and women of Lori
Province participated in the courses organized within the frames of the
program. After the courses, the participants presented a total of 62
business plans, of which 12 were group plans. Out of all the plans,
15 were approved, and 3 of those (1 in Akhtala and 2 in Alaverdi)
were funded, allowing the women to carry out their programs," she said.
