Invitation to Women's Empowerment Camp

The Right Side Human Rights Defender NGO announces an open call for participation in Women’s Empowerment Camp. The camp will be implemented with the financial support of the Equality Fund and aims to develop participants’ leadership skills and promote solidarity among them. This camp is a continuation of the Trans camps initiated by the Right Side NGO and this year will be held on the 28-30 of June.

Who can participate?

Trans LGBIQ people from Yerevan and different regions, their family members, activists, members of the feminist movement, representatives of organizations in the field, supporters, and other interested persons over 18 years old can participate in the camp.

Women’s Empowerment Camp aims to provide leadership skills and empower women in various fields. We believe in creating a safe and inclusive space that encourages personal growth, self-expression, and the development of valuable skills. Through a series of workshops, discussions, and interactive meetings, participants will explore various aspects of leadership and the specifics of human rights protection and form lasting connections. Strengthening solidarity among participants is another important aspect of the camp’s agenda. By fostering mutual respect, understanding, and support, the camp aims to create lasting bonds between participants that will continue to develop after the camp ends.
