ARMDA is the localization of NIMD’s Democracy Schools in Armenia, thought out and implemented together with our new partner OxYGen. NIMD’s schools provide a safe space for individuals from diverse social and political backgrounds to engage in dialogue and exchange ideas on various issues of common interest. “We bring to the table a value-add in the form of democracy education and facilitation of dialogue as an honest and trusted broker. Given Armenia’s current political polarization and serious security challenges – this support has never been more critical to ensure Armenia’s democratic trajectory,” shares Armen Sahakyan, NIMD Armenia’s Country Director.
