Diplo empowers Armenian civil society on digital issues
As Armenia navigates its digital transformation, a new wave of civil society training is quietly reshaping how communities engage with technology and democratic governance.
A new round of training sessions has been launched in Armenia to strengthen civil society’s understanding of digital governance. The initiative, which began on 12 June, brings together NGO representatives from both the regions and the capital to deepen their knowledge of crucial digital topics, including internet governance, AI, and digital rights.
The training program combines online and offline components, aiming to equip participants with the tools needed to actively shape the digital future of Armenia. By increasing the digital competence of civil society actors, the program aspires to promote broader democratic engagement and more informed contributions to policy discussions in the digital space.
The educational initiative is being carried out by Diplo as part of the ‘Digital Democracy for ALL’ measure by GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit), in close cooperation with several regional GIZ projects that focus on civil society and public administration reform in Eastern Partnership countries. The sessions have been praised for their depth and impact, with particular appreciation extended to Angela Saghatelyan for her leadership, and to Diplo’s experts Vladimir Radunovic, Katarina Bojovic, and Marília Maciel for their contributions.
