A co-operation agreement between the OSCE Office in Yerevan and the
Human Rights Defender’s Office will be signed on Monday, 6 October,
in the OSCE Office in Yerevan.

The agreement aims to increase the democratic control over the security
sector by setting up a joint task force of experts who will help the
Ombudsman’s Office to monitor application of existing disciplinary
sanctions in the army. The ad hoc report suggesting a set of concrete
recommendations to the Government will be produced within the project.

Ambassador Sergey Kapinos, Head of the OSCE Office in Yerevan,
and Mr. Armen Harutyunyan, the Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman)
will sign the agreement.
