The government decided to set up a department for demography in the
Ministry of Social Security to make the social policy of the government
meet the demographic challenges.
According to the minister of social security Narine Azaryan, next year
research will be done to reveal the effect of the social programs on
the state of demography in the country.
Apparently the government has realized the interdependence of the
social policy and the state of demography.
The minister says next year another department will be set up in
the ministry, the department of public relations. The department of
humanitarian affairs will be reshaped into the department of charity
programs.
The changes mean that the government has changed its attitude toward
social problems, namely treatment of individuals and their problems.
