YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 17, ARMENPRESS: The American Bar Association/Central
European and Eurasian Law Initiative (ABA/CEELI) presented today
the premiere of its latest video in the Alphabet of Law Series –
Gender Equality.
The Alphabet of Law Series consists of short animated public service
announcements that teach children about government, law, and individual
rights. The series can be viewed on television stations around the
country and is also used for classroom instruction throughout Armenia.
“In terms of gender equality Armenia is among the leading nations,
though it has still a lot to do to achieve absolute equality,” Lisa
Wosson, the head of ABA/CEELI Yerevan office said before the launch of
the series. “Due to their high level intellectual capacities Armenian
women have the full right to fight for absolute equality,” she added.
The animated announcements were short with the assistance of the
USAID, Armenia.
