RA Government approved the amendment to the Charter of Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs that officially defines and strengthens the cooperation between Ministry and Armenian CSOs. The newly amended Charter provision of the Ministry provides:
“Provision of relevant necessary information to the Non-Governmental organizations acting in the territory of Armenia within the cooperation frameworks, implementation of joints projects and events, involvement of representatives of Armenian CSOs into the policy and strategy making processes on need bases."
The amendment of the Charter is an important development as it sets the ground for the adoption of the Code of Consultation and Cooperation of the Ministry.
The development of the Code is led by the Ministry of Labor in cooperation with ECNL’s local partner the Professionals for Civil Society NGO. It is supported under ECNL project “Strengthening the Legal Framewok for Citizen Action”, financed by the European Initiative for Democracy and Human Rights (EIDHR).

Just Released! UNV Report: Laws and Policies Affecting Volunteerism Since 2001
UN Volunteers just published a global research study on trends and lessons in the development of supportive volunteerism policies and legislation developed by ICNL and ECNL. An overall review was conducted in 7 regions, complemented by country-specific case studies. The study analyzes considerations in drafting and implementing volunteerism laws and policies, and highlights the need to tailor them to specific local, national, and regional contexts.
Since the International Year of Volunteers (IYV) in 2001, governments, the UN system, civil society partners, and other stakeholders have increasingly recognized that volunteerism makes significant contributions to peace and development.
