“Veles” Human Rights NGO with the support of the “National Endowment for Democracy” (NED) announces the launch of the “Anti-corruption court monitoring-combating corruption” project.

The goal of the project is to contribute to enhancing accountability and access to justice in Armenia.

Within the framework of the project we will conduct two-month trainings for lawyers and journalists who will be trained for monitoring of corruption trials both in the newly formed Anti-Corruption Court and in different RA courts where similar cases are examined.

The main objective of the proposed project is to contribute to a more effective judicial response to corruption and organized crime in Armenia through professional trial monitoring at the Specialized Anti corruption court. Trial monitoring can also be used as a diagnostic tool to identify systemic problems in criminal justice system
