beauty photocontest of disabled women organized by the “Unison”

the solemn ceremony of prize distribution, the goal of the contest
is to show the society that “disability does not close the doors of
the beauty before women”. “The disabled people should be perceived as
full members of the society and they can be more active, not avoid
and take part in all kinds of events,” A.Alaverdian mentioned. The
organization had instituted prizes on “Miss Beauty”, “Vice-Miss”,
“Miss Attraction” and “Miss Smile” nominations, as well as a special
prize, “Unison’s” Charm”, and another 6 encouraging prizes. Anna
