    economic and public problems that the country faces. `Equality
    between a man and a woman is a very important factor for the
    development of all countries, including Armenia', she said. According
    to Grande, it's necessary to start a dialogue between state officials
    and civic society to improve the state of women in the country and to
    strengthen their role in the civic society.
    On October 22-23, an International Conference `For the Advancement of
    Women - National Plan in Action' is held in Yerevan. The conference
