    Construction of medical station of Karabakh's Aghavnatun to promote resettlement

    11:21, 14 March, 2015


    YEREVAN, 13 MARCH, ARMENPRESS: Each person can contribute to the
    construction of medical station of Aghavnatun community in Artsakh,
    donating even smallest amount. The fundraising is carried out by
    "OneArmenia" organiztion, which has implemented a number of projects
    throughout Armenia and Artsakh. "Armenpress" interviewed with Nazareth
    Seferyan, the director of the company's Armenian office, on the
    priority importance of the medical station's construction of
    Aghavnatun community.

    Aghavnatun is 30-40km away from the Berdzor town of Kashatagh. The
    community is consisted of three villages: Aghavnatun, Khachgetik and
    Harar, approximately with a population of 150 people. The majority has
    resettled there from the cities of Armenia, as it has a military
    importance of the region. The residents of Aghavnatun community go to
    the hospital of Berdzor, when necessary, which is not so available to
    the residents of the community, because the roads of the city are in
    poor condition. The community has one nurse Lilik, who had to walk and
    pass miles to provide medical assistance.

    Nazareth Seferyan underlined that the existence of medical station in
    the community can promote the resettlement of new people in the area.
    "People, when they come from the towns and want to live there, check
    out, if there are some structures, one of which is a medical station.
    It is difficult to imagine the life without it somewhere, especially
    when you have children and young family. Aghavnatun is an interesting
    community, because people of different age groups live there,"
    Nazareth Seferian stressed.

    According to him the construction of medical station will allow to get
    a vacancy from the state for one doctor or a medical assistant. "We'll
    also be able to organize visits of doctors and dentists from Yerevan
    and Stapanakert. All of these are included in the program's sum. In
    the final result, the amount necessary form some visits will be
    sponsored," Seferian underscored.

    The area for the medical station has already been selected. The
    construction will be from almost zero, as it is a demolished building,
    in which only the two walls are suitable.

    Referring to the question of equipment, Nazareth Seferian noted that
    the clinic will have essential equipment, which will help to provide
    first aid. "The equipments are not very showy. There will be a bed,
    tonometers for the measurement of pressure, thermometers and other
    tools," the interlocutor underlined, adding that theoretically it
    would be possible also to organize childbirth services. "Now, there
    are two pregnant women, who go to the hospital of Berdzor. At this
    moment, it will be very difficult in the village to give a birth
    without minimum conditions," Nazareth Seferian emphasized.

    The project has a budget of USD 33 thousand 98, 29% of which (by March
    12, 11: 00 am) has been collected. The smallest assistance even is
    very important, because is directed to an essential program. Perhaps,
    it is more important for us, that 33 thousand people donate one
    dollar, than to have a donor, who grants the entire amount. One of the
    principles of is the participation, which is from the
    three principles: participation, transparency and implementation of
    new ideas. We try to motivate people from Armenia to make
    contribution. We are delighted even from the smallest amount of
    support. When you donate money to the project, you are more interested
    in Armenia and Artsakh, it is also an important aspect of
    surveillance," Nazareth Seferyan highlighted. He said that the
    residents of Armenia can also make a donation directly participating
    in the planned concert, which will be held on March 22, in "Tufenkyan"
    hotel, with participation of "Karahunch" band.

    The largest participation of donation was from USA, as it happened in
    the case of the other fundraisings. "From USA 63 people have
    participated, 10 people from Armenia, 7 people from Canada, people
    from Argentina, Brazil, Germany, Great Britain, France, Kuwait also
    have their contributions to that fund. The amount of donations made
    until Monday will be doubled by the organization of London 'Armenian
    Centre Trust'," the director of "One Armenia" noted.

    The head of the organization, which implements the project, gladly
    said that the people are joining this program not only by their
    monetary donation, but by the voluntary principle, they open a page
    and organize their donation.

    "Each of us has our page and goals, where we organize fundraising. 17
    pages are opened for that program, eight of which belong to our
    employees, and the rest belongs to the volunteers, who support us.

    For example, Lusine Mosinyan from the USA has prepared her page and
    spread it among her friends and in the circle of community asking for
    donations to build a medical station in the Aghavnatun community.
    Sargis Panosyan is from Uruguay, his birthday was on March 8, he has
    told friends that this year he does not want a birthday present, but
    suggested that they can transfer the sum of the presents to the
    program of Aghavnatun," said Mr. Seferyan, happily considering it,
    that people, besides donations, tcan sometimes inform about the
    program to their friends and thus receive a donation.
