Armenian Women

The Womens' Resource Center, Kanayq Hayots, is celebrating its 1st anniversary.

Kanayq Hayots Women's Resource Center, based on the campus of Yerevan State University, in Armenia, is celebrating the Center's first anniversary of operation with the unveiling of its E-Center website, which was enabled by a grant from the World Learning Armenian NGO Strengthening Program. As a part of the Kanayq Hayots collective's vision, this bilingual E-Center will first of all act as a safe zone for Armenian women who are interested in learning about their own history and heritage, promote women's activism and participate in the democratic and social development within our society. The website will host and periodically post updates on events concerning women's issues taking place at the Kanayq Hayots Center and Yerevan State University.

The site's "Famous Armenian Women" link says 'coming soon', but I am sure that refers to the page, not the famous Armenian women. Many of the links are still a work in progress, but when it's finished it should be a useful addition to the current stable of Armenian websites.
