Labor Migration: Analyzing Trends in Armenia
On April 29, 2008, Eurasia Partnership Foundation (EPF) in cooperation with the Armenian NGO "Zinvori Mair" convened a two-day conference in Yerevan entitled "Migration from Armenia to Russia: the Role of Civil Society, Networks, and Dialogue with Government". The goals of the conference were to increase public awareness about Russian and Armenian migration policies, present the two countries’ experience in addressing migration-related issues, and forge stronger ties between government and non-governmental organizations in Russia and Armenia in their efforts to decrease irregular migration.
As a unique celebration of April 7 – the Day of Beauty and Motherhood in Armenia – USAID and Project NOVA representatives joined the staff of the Vedi Maternity House to mark the opening of their new School of Motherhood – one of four similar schools launched this week in Armenia through USAID assistance. The Schools of Motherhood provide counseling to women, physical and psychological instruction on childbirth, information on the delivery process, and a wealth of information on the importance of a healthy lifestyle during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
