YEREVAN, MAY 8, ARMENPRESS: Today, the Children of Armenia Fund (COAF)
held an award reception in its Yerevan office to mark the completion
of trainings for hairdressers initiated by COAF and implemented in
partnership with Anahit Beauty Salon. The major goal of the pilot
project was to train a group of young people from four villages
constituting the Model Cluster, as part of Comprehensive Rural
Development Program in the District of Armavir.
An official from COAF told Armenpress that the three months of
intensive trainings held at two salons of Anahit Beauty based in
Yerevan have left the trainees with notable achievements and good
results.
During this period, the participants from Argina, Lernagog, Myasnikyan
and Shenik communities acquired up-to-date techniques and modern
approaches to hair styling and design. As one leading expert from
Anahit Beauty Salon cited, "These young ladies are now fully equipped
with necessary skills to be able to meet the challenges of customer
service in their native villages".
In the words of Aneta Lazarian, a trainee representing Shenik, it
was an exciting experience for them to be trained in one of capital
city's most prestigious salons. "We knew so little, when we came here,
and now the world is open for us and we have plenty of opportunities
to be useful to our village population. We are confident and strong,
and are looking forward to starting our own hairdressing salons".
The certificates of course completion and small incentives were
awarded jointly by Dr. Arpie Balian, COAF Armenia Country Director,
and Ms. Suzy Grigorian, General Manager, Anahit Beauty Salon. When
addressing the guests, Dr. Balian emphasized the high professionalism
of Anahit experts and their continuous dedication to work. In turn,
Ms. Grigorian noted that "such initiatives are always welcome,
especially when they are implemented with the objective of revitalizing
rural areas and strengthening the capacity of rural people".
Also present at the event were the mayors of cluster villages, who
expressed their gratitude to all the parties involved. They also
hoped that the project would result in income generating activities
in each of the mentioned communities and economic growth throughout
the whole cluster.
