Arevik is one of the members from the 1st cohort of the program. Arevik was born in Shirak region and moved to Artsakh, Kashatagh region as a beneficiary of a program for nurses. She worked there for more than 18 years and was forced to move out after the war on 20 Nov 2020. She settled in the village Aygezard, Ararat region and could not find a job for months.
In search of new opportunities, she engaged in our project and got a new profession of cosmetologist. After a four-month course in ART House educational center and receiving the necessary equipment and materials she is now working for a beauty salon. She and women like her serve as role models for many women in their communities and prove with their own examples that despite all the difficulties they face there is always a way out.
We are happy to announce that all our beneficiaries from the first group have already got jobs!!!! We will keep you posted with their success stories!!!!
The second group is already recruited. 5 talented women have joined the project. They had their introductory session, signed the agreements, and will start their professional development courses from 1 March 2023. 1 of them will become a nail artist, 2 florist designers and 2 will master the profession of tailor.
