ArmInfo. Ameria Business Consulting & Law Company has developed target
proposals on village communities in Armenia.

CJSC Ameria press-service told ArmInfo that the company pays special
attention to the role of village communities in the social and economic
development of Armenia as well as to effective and purposeful use of
labor force. Thus, at the end of 2008 the company launched surveys
in the given sphere after winning a tender announced by the State
Service of Armenia for Employment to ‘survey labor force in village
communities’. The survey aims to reveal the problems in village
communities i.e. employment, needs, as well as possibilities
of launching SMEs, developing economy and creating jobs in the
agricultural sector. The company surveyed 15 village communities in
8 regions of Armenia. To get full data on various social sections of
the population, 12 communities with relatively low living standards
and 3 communities with relative high living standards were surveyed.

The last three communities were Baghramyan (Armavir region), Ohanavan
(Aragatsotn region) and Mkhchyan (Ararat region). The company also
polled employers, the heads of educational establishments and elders’
councils.

Basing on the survey results, Ameria specialists conducted a versatile
analysis and made relevant resolutions. Thus, the company developed
target proposals on reforms in the legislative and social economic
spheres to enhance economy and employment in village communities and
to ensure effective and purposeful use of labor force.

The company made an instructive report at a special presentation at
Armenia-Marriott Hotel with participation of officials from the UN,
USAID, the ministries of economy, agriculture, regional administration,
labor and social affairs, science and education, as well as the
national security and statistical services, the National Center for
Development of Professional Education and Teaching, and experts from
Sweden and other organizations interested.
