  • A. D. Sakharov Armenian Human Rights Foundation
    A. D. Sakharov Armenian Human Rights Foundation Monitoring Report On Working Conditions in First Instance Courts in Shirak, Gegharkunik, and Syunik Marzes (Regions) Studies were conducted and this Report was elaborated due to the generous financial and technical assistance of the OSCE Office in Yerevan and the Polish Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights Preface The mission of the A. D. Sakharov Armenian Human Rights Foundation is to support the establishment of a civil society in Armenia, to enhance legal awareness of the public, and to protect rights and freedoms of humans and citizens. The organization has three regional branches in Shirak (City of Gyumri), Gegharkunik (City of Gavar), and Syunik (City of Goris). In 2001, representatives of the three branches attended a series of “Monitoring and Human Rights” seminars held in Lusakert by the OSCE Office in Yerevan and the Polish Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights; as a practical follow-up to the seminars, and within the framework of the ongoing judicial reform, they have carried out a “Monitoring of Working Conditions in First Instance Courts” project in the Shirak, Gegharkunik, and Syunik regions of Armenia. The goal of the project was to explore the current conditions in which courts in the regions operate, because the working conditions and infrastructure of the third branch of government are crucial in terms of its stance, its improved role and authority, and guaranteeing the right of citizens to a fair and public trial within a reasonable time, as required under the existing laws. The concept of the judicial reform in the Republic of Armenia was formed under the Constitution adopted in 1995.

Meghrigian Institute’s mission is to prevent avoidable blindness in Armenia. This Annual Report highlights the main activities and accomplishments of the Meghrigian Institute in 2011. In April 2011, Meghrigian Institute conducted a study of risk factors for refractive errors (RE) development among 6-18 years old schoolchildren in Yerevan and Gegharkunik marz. The study also compared the prevalence of RE among schoolchildren in Yerevan and Gegharkunik. On September 24-25 and October 15-16, the Meghrigian Institute conducted a 2-day training course on “Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment of Ophthalmic Diseases at the Primary Health Care Level” in Gegharkunik marz. The training course was designed for primary health care (PHC) nurses and was carried out at the Lions Regional Ophthalmic Unit (ROU) in Sevan. Thirty one participants from five towns (Tchambarak, Vardenis, Martuni, Gavar and Sevan) and six remote villiges (Geghamabak, Shatvan, Sotk, Tsovagyugh, Geghamavan and Gagarinavan) participated in the training. To celebrate the World Sight Day on October 13, 2011, the staff of the Meghrigian Institute visited “Kharberd” specialized orphanage to conduct annual eye screenings among handicapped and orphaned children, and offer medical assistance. Almost all of the screened children had some type of visual disturbance and/or eye disease.

The island was strengthened with fort walls during the bronze century. During the 9th century Sevan became the royal citadel of the Syuniats kings. In 874 the daughter of King Ashot Bagratuni – Mariam, built the Arakelots and the St.Astvatzatzin (Holy Virgin) churches. There is a chapel on the eastern side of the St.Astvatzatzin church, whose columns have carved wooden decorated capitals, which are important examples of Armenian wood-carving art, and they are now preserved both in the Armenian State Historical museum and in the Hermitage.

The Republic of Armenia has ratified a number of environmental conventions, particularly the Aarhus and Espoo Conventions, which committed to the compliance of the national legislation with the international standards. The OSCE has established the Aarhus Centers in Armenia in order to support the authorities in this issue, to raise the level of public awareness, to involve public participation in the decision making processes. Now their number is 15. This is an effectively functioning network, which covers almost all the provinces of Armenia, and which actively promotes with its daily work to - raise public awareness on the environmental issues - raise public legal awareness - law enforcement practice in the fields of environmental violations. So, only in 2013 were held 702 seminars, public hearings and discussions, have been filed almost 200 (two hundred) requests on a number of issues, including decision-making, the fixed number of our site users is nearly 300,000, grew nearly 30% over the past year. Aarhus Centers have essentially undertaken the function of the public oversight which is under the state obligations. The role of the centers in terms of their activities is unique for the formation of the atmosphere of trust, providing the platform of dialogue and discussions for all the interested parties, cooperation with municipalities and governmental bodies, coordinated activities with public and civic sector.

  • Axes, Labyrinths and Astral Symbols: Bronze Pendants and Pins from the Armenian Highlands*
    doi: 10.2143/AWE.17.0.3284888 AWE 17 (2018) 27-63 AXES, LABYRINTHS AND ASTRAL SYMBOLS: BRONZE PENDANTS AND PINS FROM THE ARMENIAN HIGHLANDS* PAVEL AVETISYAN, ROBERTO DAN AND ARTUR PETROSYAN1 Abstract The aim of this paper is to give a detailed analysis of a group of pendants and pins distin- guished by the presence of peculiar decorations. We have proposed for these objects a new date to the Iron Age. The majority of them were found in a number of excavations, in rich burials of persons of high rank. In most cases, the objects were found in poor condition, while the best-preserved specimen, discovered in Gavar almost complete, was found in for- tuitous circumstances. In the present article, a new interpretation of this object is provided. Introduction In Armenia, a group of bronze objects distinguished by the presence of peculiar decorations has been discovered over the years, mostly in fragmentary conditions of preservation. In this paper we have tried to bring together, for the first time, all the known examples of these objects, which have not been studied in detail up to now, for the purpose of providing typological descriptions and discussing the main func- tional and iconographic interpretations that have been proposed for them, as well as suggesting new possible interpretations of the most famous of these specimens. These objects mostly date to the Iron Age and were probably used as pendants and pins. The majority of them were found in a number of excavations, in rich burials * The authors wish to thank Svetlana Poghosyan, deputy scientific director of the Sardarapat Battle Memorial Complex, National Museum of Armenian Ethnography and History of the Liberation Struggle, for having given us the opportunity to photograph and study unpublished material from Shirakavan and Spandaryan stored in the Museum.
