New Programme Director joins World Vision Armenia
World Vision Armenia is thrilled to announce the hiring of Raffi Doudaklian as World Vision Armenia Programme Director, effective May 10, 2021.
Armenia
World Vision started its operations in Armenia right after the devastating earthquake in 1988 by delivering humanitarian aid. Later, along with the humanitarian support, World Vision started implementing development projects.
In 2000, World Vision launched its first ‘Child Sponsorship’ programme in Gyumri marking the start of long-term community development interventions.
Today, World Vision focuses its efforts on border communities of Armenia where tens of thousands of children directly benefit from the organisation’s development projects.
Help them realise their dreams
World Vision’s ‘Child Sponsorship’ programme is an opportunity for each of us to invest in shaping an intelligent, educated and self-standing generation.
You can also join World Vision’s ‘Child Sponsorship’ programme, become a sponsor for a child living in one of Armenia’s remote communities and improve his/her life.
Share Love
In 2015, the world leaders made a decision to establish “End violence against children” global partnership and to eliminate all forms of violence against children by 2030. World Vision Armenia, together with 10 major child-focused organizations in Armenia, initiated “Share Love, not Violence” campaign aiming to promote prevention and elimination of violence against children within “It takes a world” global campaign.
