YEREVAN, JANUARY 23, NOYAN TAPAN. The "Hayastan" All-Armenian Fund’s
Rural Development Program has announced the start of the program
on improvement of the veterinary service in six border villages of
Tavush marz. According to the Fund’s PR department, these villages
have been included in the program’s pilot microstage. The program
will be implemented with the assistance of "Strategical Development
Agency" NGO, the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation and
the Izmirlian Foundation.

In parallel with organizing training courses for veterinaries and
residents of the six communities, the program will supply medical
equipment and medicines for veterinary stations. After a one-month
sponsorship stage, the service will operate by monthly payments of
community residents. These payments make a small portion of the sum
that rural residents spend on purchase of medicines from regional
centers. These monthly payments will provide a stable income for
veterinaries.

The "Hayastan" All-Armenian Fund is a noncommercial organization
which was founded in 1992 and aims to promote humanitarian aid and
development of infrastructures in Armenia and the NKR. The Fund has
local bodies in 19 countries worldwide.
