 In early April, 2008, I walked out of my office at the foreign ministry, up one block, and moved into the new offices of the Civilitas Foundation. I was excited, not despondent, because we had great plans. I had known for more than a year that it was time to work at the grassroots level with other organizations to bring change, and a spirit of hope and empowerment, to civil society in Armenia.For nearly four years, that is what we at Civilitas have done. With a new vision, with a hopeful, enthusiastic, smart young team, with help and support from some very trusting and confident individuals, with program assistance and guidance from some very thoughtful international entities, Civilitas has brought new energy, new expectations, a new way of working and a new perspective on media, public discussion, rural development and serious analysis.

Civilitas Director Salpi Ghazarian discussed ongoing projects and especially the new media programs -- CivilNet.TV and Orakarg, a daily newspaper. She stressed the importance of the upcoming electoral period and the importance of good, comprehensive election and economic programming. Civilitas Founder Vartan Oskanian welcomed the ambassadors and pledged that Civilitas will continue its work to strengthen civil society and civic participation in Armenia. Armenia and Neighbors. 20 Years in Figures
Monday, 16 January 2012 15:47 |
 It is difficult to gauge the immense changes recorded in the South Caucasus in the years since the fall of the Soviet Union. The people of Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan have lived and experienced on their skin, these uneven, often adverse, sometimes inspiring developments. Yet, seen from within, it has often been difficult to maintain perspective and to put things in context.

With the support of Norwegian and German governments, a few months ago the Civilitas Foundation began to conduct polls throughout Armenia. The results of the polls will be made available to the media and will serve as the topic of public discussions.
