Project Report | Apr 19, 2024
This is How We Started the Year

By Shana Hasasyan | Project Coordinator

Pink continues its commitment to empower the LGBT+ community in Armenia. Our efforts encompass providing vital psychosocial and legal aid, addressing prevalent challenges such as security concerns, regional tensions, and various forms of discrimination, violence, and family conflicts that affects the well-being of our community.

Simultaneously, we prioritize the enhancement of helping professionals. Through training sessions, we equip psychologists and social workers with heightened sensitivity towards LGBT+ issues. We brought together experienced specialists and aspiring students during those sessions to emphasize the importance of fostering networks and collaborative efforts.

Empowerment initiatives are integral to our agenda. Workshops focusing on career advancement tackle the unique challenges LGBT+ individuals encounter in securing employment and asserting their rights. The overwhelmingly positive response to these sessions underscores their practical relevance and value. Additionally, courses in graphic design and social media marketing equips our community with tangible skills for the contemporary job market.

Our outreach extends beyond urban centers, encompassing regional areas. Here, we conducted group discussions dedicated to mental health, motivation, and combatting bullying, alongside workshops celebrating drag artistry, fostering an inclusive environment for self-expression.

In conclusion, Pink's dedication remains steadfast amid a flurry of activity. We are resolutely committed to supporting our community through multifaceted initiatives, eagerly anticipating the opportunities that lie ahead.

Thank you to all our generous donors for your invaluable support. Your contributions are vital in sustaining Pink Armenia's ongoing efforts to uplift and empower the LGBT+ community in Armenia. Together, we are creating positive change and shaping a brighter future for all.
