| During the training |
The
project aims to promote the involvement of the youth of the Republic of Armenia
in the development of their communities, to develop their skills to identify
community problems and find solutions choosing the modern technology as a tool
and a platform.
Being
in socially vulnerable condition, the youth of the distant regions of RA,
having noticeable lack of knowledge and skills in journalism, mass media, IT,
most of them cannot claim and inform the society and share their problems. Some
of them get disappointed and leave their communities. As a result, the youth becomes
more passive and the community problems become hidden.
Dear donors, your donations were directed
towards the implementation of training a new generation of young journalists.

Active
and highly motivated young people form 14-20 years old were selected as a
target who want to be involved in the development of their communities. During the
meetings our beneficiaries had opportunity to ask their questions to our
leading specialists and of course suggest real solutions during discussions and
debates. As a result, “Young Experts” virtual platform was created, where the
youth can freely communicate, ask the questions concerning them online and
receive professional replies. During the meetings our participants were given
shirts with ICT logo which reflected the idea of being one team better.
By
analyzing and examining the further actions of the youth in distant regions and
the condition of the distant regions we came to conclusion that positive
changes are expected during the coming stages of the project, a clear plan has
been developed, which will be the guidance when completing effective and
correct community research.

Hello, I’m Mary. I live in Vanadzor community. During my free time I like painting. I painted Lui, a 16 years old boy who also lives in my community. Lui wants to solve the problems of our community. He is a strong boy and he never gets disappointed. During this training Lui and me have learnt how to identify the community problems. We are sure that in the nearest future we’ll live in a better and democratic society. Dear donors, in our country we are strong together and your donations help and will help us to live in a place where the freedom of speech, democracy and patience reign.
