 "Joining Nor Luyce has radically changed my life as well as my future. I could improve myself, get rid of complexes; gain a number of important skills, and most importantly good friends. Thanks to Nor Luyce my worldview was changed, as well as my perceptions of life and of other people, were changed.", one of our mentees has expressed her thoughts. 

During these last three months our mentees were provided with 534 hours of individual services and 56 hours of group meetings. These meetings allowed the mentees learnt how to survive during war, what rights they have, how to set a short-term and long-term goals to reach their dreams, etc. They also had an opportunity to share all the lessons learnt and take-aways from their mentoring relationships and to hear these stories was rewarding for the mentros. 

The mentees also had an opportunity to explore and prepare their career plans, visit universities and other organizations to understand where they see their future. As a result of these meetings the mentees had finalized their career plans which will help them to take sustainable steps towards a better future.  The mentees also practiced the soft skills they gained through actively participating in a debate. And our third phase mentees had the opportunity to meet 4 famous people in Armenia who motivated them to follow their dreams, never give up and how to continue fighting for future when everywhere they face challenges and locked doors.

Along with finalizing the program year, we have also started the workshops for the new mentors to empower them with the right knowledge, skills and tools to start working with adolescent girls in the new program year. We also provided the mentees with computer classes to make sure they are ready for the next phase of our program.

During these last 3 months Nor Luyce has actively cooperated with various local and international organizations. The mentees and the Executive Director were invited to give a presentation on ‘How to stop bullying at local schools’ for students and teachers; they also had an opportunity to participate in international event: High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, and share their impact on realizing Sustainable Development Goals on the ground.
