  • Epizootologic Potential of Certain Natural Foci Infections in Northeastern Armenia
    ISDS 2018 Conference Abstracts Epizootologic Potential of Certain Natural Foci Infections in Northeastern Armenia Arsen Manucharyan* Laboratory of Epizootology, Ectoparasitology and Entomology, RA MOH, NCDCP SNCO, Reference Laboratory Center branch, Yerevan, Armenia Objective Fleas characteristic to S. uralensis and M. socialis The objective of this study was to analyze the epizootic potential of four areas of Tavush Marz. Introduction Tavush Marz, in northeastern Armenia, occupies 9,1% of its territory. In recent years in this area either no surveys were conducted or they were incomplete. Tavush Marz is a tourism center as well as a border Marz with strategic importance. The presence of tularemia was Keywords first confirmed in 1949 in Noyemberyan. Natural foci of tularemia are epizootologic potential; natural foci; tularemia located in forest zones where Sylvemus uralensis and its flea vectors are the source of infection. *Arsen Manucharyan E-mail: [email protected] Methods Tests were conducted in four areas of Tavush Marz. Materials for laboratory analyses were collected via sampling from animal populations and their nests; insect traps, nets, aspirators were used as well. Collected rodents, fleas and mosquitoes were tested on the presence of natural foci especially dangerous infections. The acquired data with coordinates of collection sites were included in the geographic database. Results The first detection of the Aedes albopictus species of Culicoidea subfamily in Armenia was on the border between Noyemberyan and Georgia in 2016; this is a vector of especially dangerous infections and arboviruses. The presence of the mosquito was confirmed in 2017 and it makes up 13.5% of the mosquitoes collected in the northeast.

  • 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.
