The NGO representatives believe that the Non-Governmental Organizations should participate in the entire process of the development of public policies
They are sure that civil society organizations should be provided opportunity to be involved in decision-making processes just from the very beginning. Otherwise, the government decisions and solutions will not have results in our country.
The regular focus group meeting with the representatives of the “Maternal and Child health Armenian Alliance” was organized in the scope of “Commitment to Constructive Dialogue” Project”.
Mr. Aleksander Shagafyan, Aleksnader Shagafyan, President of the “Armenian CIVITAS” NGO facilitated the meeting.
